Review:
This is the eighty eighth in a series of special Jazz on the Tube reviews of live stream performances.
Support live music – even when it’s streamed!
José André was born blind 15 years ago but that has not stopped him from quickly developing into a top-notch jazz pianist.
Born in Cochabamba, Bolivia, he began playing music when he was three (he is self-taught on piano), at the age of six was performing concerts, and has since played in many countries and major concert halls including at the Kennedy Center.
The 15-year old pianist is featured on a LiveStream from July 13, 2020, playing over prerecorded bass and drums, stretching out on swinging originals and “Invitation,” “I Remember April” and “Joy Spring.”
Although his brief talking between songs is sometimes electronically distorted (skip that part), the piano playing of José André should certainly be experienced even this early in what should be a long and significant career.

Review:
This is the one hundred and third in a series of special Jazz on the Tube reviews of live stream performances.
Support live music – even when it’s streamed!
Born in Pittsburgh, bassist Richie Goods started his career early by playing in church and clubs while still in high school.
After graduating from Berklee, he moved to New York, studied under Ron Carter and Ray Brown, and worked with pianist Mulgrew Miller for nine years.
Goods also worked with the Headhunters, Lenny White, Milt Jackson, Russell Malone, Vincent Herring, Whitney Houston, Christina Aguilera, Alicia Keys, and Chris Botti among many others, shifting easily between jazz and r&b.
The youngest person ever inducted into the Pittsburgh Jazz Hall of Fame, he has led the Nuclear Fusion and headed albums of his own.
For this LiveStream from June 27, 2020, Richie Goods performs what he says was only his second solo bass concert; he starts on electric bass for “The Star Spangled Banner,” “Danny Boy” and a Prince song and then on acoustic bass displays his versatility (and bowing technique on one song) and virtuosity, performing a wide variety of high-quality material on both basses while holding one’s interest throughout.

Review:
This is the one hundred and sixty-eighth in a series of special Jazz on the Tube reviews of live stream performances.
Support live music – even when it’s streamed!
Lessie Vonner started on the trumpet when she was 11, playing her first gigs while still in high school.
She moved to New York to attend the New School and studied under such trumpeters as Cecil Bridgewater, Charles Tolliver, Jimmy Owens, Tanya Darby, and Ingrid Jensen, picking up a lot of experience while playing with rock and pop groups (including Beyoncé) while keeping her eventual focus on jazz.
On her LiveStream from June 27, 2020, Lessie Vonner performs her excellent composition “Cup Overflowing” in a duet with bassist Russell Hall, displaying a tone that is a little reminiscent of Clifford Brown along with a relaxed and thoughtful style that makes one look forward to her future projects.

It’s past time to give Eddie Durham his due
Every academic jazz department in the world needs to set aside at least one day to ask themselves this question:
How do we correct the huge injustice of Eddie Durham not being recognized as a jazz giant on the same level of Duke Ellington?
Durham was the “secret sauce” behind many iconic jazz bands and musicians. Take him out of the picture and jazz might not have flowered the way it did.
Yes, he was that important and it’s time he gets his due.
Forward this page to your favorite jazz opinion leaders.
Whose careers were nourished by Eddie Durham’s genius?
How about these for starters?
The Oklahoma City Blue Devils, Benny Moten, Jimmie Lunceford, Count Basie, Charlie Christian, Lester Young, Glenn Miller – and this is just the short list!
