New York City, NY

If one wanted to capture a 'who's who' snapshot of the jazz icons of the mid-'70s, into the '80s and beyond, one of the best ways to start was to see if they had added their name to the list of artists who recorded and/or released a 'Live at Sweet Basil' collection. The New York City club debuted as a restaurant in 1974 and, within a few years, artists including Art Blakey, Gil Evans, Cecil Taylor, McCoy Tyner, Mal Waldron and others began performing at the compact venue, and had recorded sessions there. One of the first to hit the 'record' button was bassist Ron Carter. Carter recorded this session in 1990 along with three other jazz giants: Art Farmer on both trumpet and flugelhorn, Cedar Walton on piano and Billy Higgins on drums. Carter, Walton and Higgins even returned for yet another recorded session in 1991 (without Farmer that time around.)

Black Sabbath‘s Geezer Butler has said Ozzy Osbourne “desperately wants” to play one final show with the band. Last month, Osbourne revealed that he would “jump at the chance” to perform another Sabbath show with co-founder Bill Ward. The drummer backed out of participating in the group’s reunion dates between 2011 and 2017 over an “unreasonable” contract.

According to Shakey's website, this pizza parlor is only in California, North Carolina, and Washington state in the U.S. now. This was my family's go-to pizza joint when my father was stationed with the Air Force outside of Omaha, Nebraska. We liked it so much, that when we were transferred again, it was hopeful we'd find another one.

Sandy Paws Rescue Inc., a foster-based rescue in Massachusetts, recently introduced a six-year-old French bulldog named Joannie who is looking for her forever home. The local animal rescue explains: “Joannie was found as a stray extremely emaciated and less than half her current weight now. She was missing fur on her body, face and ears. She has been nursed back to health and is doing wonderfully. While her age and exact history is unknown, it is clear she has mothered more than enough litters in her short lifetime.”

Today, the Spotlight shines On Seattle pianist and composer Bill Anschell. We've had award winners of all types on the podcast, but as far as I can remember, Bill is the first to have won an award for humor: in 2014, Bill was the winner of the inaugural Paul Desmond Award, All About Jazz's celebration of the funniest jazz artists. We get to that and his satirical essay, "Careers in Jazz," which is one of the most-read pieces on All About Jazz.

Tickled Pink is a beautiful compromise between American Pop and the bossa nova of Stan Getz and Astrud Gilberto for the early 1960s. Let’s hope for an entire album. Evocative and provocative, Tickled Pink, the latest single release from Corinne, out now and available everywhere, infuses a modern spin on bossa jazz. She flirts with a pop sensibility, as well as her lyrical romantic subject, yet maintains the integrity of the traditional style. The song is both an instant throwback to another time and a modern classic. With just one listen, your toes feel equally buried in the sandy beaches of Rio ’24 or ’64. Corinne is an old soul who offers both sanctuary to tradition and a pioneering modern style.

Is Corinne's Tickled Pink The New Black This Summer?
