  1. Review: SFJAZZ Center makes a splash on opening night

    SAN FRANCISCO -- Los Angeles, did you hear that?
    SAN FRANCISCO -- Los Angeles, did you hear that? Given the laws of physics and the roughly 400-odd miles of distance, it's unlikely this week's opening of the $63-million SFJAZZ Center could be heard on the opposite end of the state (apart from its live...

  2. Labor of love: Luxuria Music spins with all volunteers

    In a small studio on the far edge of Glendale, a worldwide flow of music is in a moment of transition. On the turntable is a 45rpm disc of spectral, hypnotic sounds from 1980, as radio DJ Lee Joseph begins winding down his two-hour show on <a href="http://www.LuxuriaMusic.com" target="_blank">LuxuriaMusic.com</a>. The record is &ldquo;I&rsquo;m Sorry,&rdquo; a vinyl artifact of outsider music by the all-female art-punk band the Inflatable Boy Clams, a quartet as obscure as the music is exotic.

  5. Fontella Bass: An appreciation

    There are two works that illustrate the range of Fontella Bass' singing power.
    There are two works that illustrate the range of Fontella Bass' singing power. One is a gut-busting soul cry, “Rescue Me,” a propellant R&B banger from 1965 that became Bass' signature. The other, equally vital, is a nine-minute thrill...

  6. Dave Brubeck dies at 91; jazz legend

    In the strait-laced Eisenhower 1950s, Dave Brubeck seemed, on one hand, deeply conventional. He didn't drink, smoke or take drugs. He favored expressions like "baloney!" and "you bet" over ruder alternatives. He had a prodigious work ethic that had been ground into him by his cowboy father on the family's California cattle ranch.

  7. Time out -- take five with the Brubeck Jazz Quartet

    Paul Greenberg
    Dave Brubeck wasn't just a goodwill ambassador abroad with his music and manner, but at home. No one who ever met him left without a good feeling -- and a good story. Here's one: It was long ago when she was a bright girl from deep in the heart of Texas,...

  8. Grammys 2013: Jazz category plays it straight as Glasper goes to R&B

    Pianist Robert Glasper was perhaps the biggest story in jazz for 2012 with his genre-blending crossover effort "Black Radio," and Grammy voters seemed to endorse his bid to reach a broader audience. Glasper received two nominations for best performance and album of the year -- in the R&amp;B category.

  9. Richard Lewis: The soul of a jazzman

    The performer bounds onto the stage, and even before the applause has died down he's standing in front of the microphone, riffing freely.
    The performer bounds onto the stage, and even before the applause has died down he's standing in front of the microphone, riffing freely. As his solo takes flight, he picks up the tempo, his thoughts rushing out in a torrent. Quickly, he develops...

  11. Critic's Notebook: Vince Guaraldi's 'A Charlie Brown Christmas' score is a gift

    It's here. The holiday season. And with it, an ever-creeping onslaught of music stuffed with enough synthetic cheer to weave a polyester overcoat for Dodger Stadium.

  12. Jazz pianist John Beasley to have January residency at Blue Whale

    The story may be apocryphal, but according to legend (i.e. Wikipedia) the jazz pianist John Beasley put together his first drum kit at age 2, using kitchen pots and pans. History does not record the title of the debut tune that Beasley performed on his DIY percussion set (let's hope, for his parents' sake, that it didn't take place 'round midnight).
