With billows and blasts from choirs and orchesters
Buskers and talkers
Big bands and squawkers,
the Stork Club has retained its qualities of decaying elegance and dwindling significance since the late 1950s.

December 6, 2020: He Coulda Been A Cowboy
Dave Brubeck was born on a ranch, and his dad was hoping he’d take over the business. Instead, he went on to study with composer/teacher Darius Milhaud, go on to have the best-selling record in jazz history, form a quartet with Paul Desmond that lasted 17 years, and went brilliantly on from there for another 40 years or so. A polyrhythmic, polytonal composer and explorer, and a fighter for social justice as well. Happy birthday.

My sense is that Schaap's engagement with the essential and the minute is of a piece with his engagement with the recorded legacy of Charlie Parker, to which he dedicated his life, down to the last scrap. They're both full of false starts, pet riffs, alternate takes, and moments of jaw-dropping invention and discovery. His verbalizations convey the sound of that study, a decades-long act of sustained attention. It's beautiful, exhausting stuff.

Pat Boone's covers of black R and B colors this kind of stuff-Elvis, more complicated. The differential success of the white and black players totally throws a monkeywrench into the assessments.
