Wondering who gets to dot the 'i' in script UConn?....

LONG day yesterday.  Played a windy day of golf with the Husky twins, Keith/Vin, then over to The Rent to tailgate with The Rick & The Hartford boys for the UConn/Pitt football game.  Great win, but very cold up in the cheap seats.  The twins are off to catch the hoops opener at Gampel v Stoney Brook.   The Reet nixed my idea to drive our Chevy down to the Mohegan Sun levee (Wolf Den) to catch Don McLean tonight.

“No one can spoil this night. Good for us to come in and spank that ass.” (Big Baby Davis after Celtics beat Heat).

I used to subscribe to Jazziz Magazine for a few years (loved the free monthly jazz CD), but eventually let it lapse.  Just got an email asking me to return.
THIS FALL ISSUE IN PRINT WITH TWO CDs (shown here) IS NOW IN ROUTE TO SUBSCRIBERS WORLDWIDE.
In this issue there are features on Esperanza Spalding, Lee Ritenour, Billy Childs, Steve Coleman, Fred Hersch, Anthony Braxton, Billy Cobham, Jeff Lorber Fusion, Miles Davis and a very special 2-CD collection titled Night & Day: Autumn.  This new collection includes one disc—Autumn Nights—filled with chamber-inspired jazz from Esperanza, Miles, Childs, Randy Brecker, John Scofield and Vince Mendoza and the other—Autumn Days—a collection of fresh sounds from Ritenour, Ernie Watts, Stanley Clarke, Jason Moran, Vijay Iyer, Grover Washington, Jr., Danilo Perez, Scott Colley and The Bad Plus.
