I always return to this. The vibrations are eclectic

[eddo]

So many new jazz artists taking up the torch of sophisticated jazz. One that figures prominently in my mind besides Linda is Nubya Garcia among many others. It's so heartening to see that jazz is not dead but is thriving in the capable hands of this younger generation. I wish more people appreciated jazz of this caliber.
