  • “The Week Begins” – News, Updates and Diet Jazz?
    Sometime you just have to write a post…… The long and winding road that this album has turned into is still winding around – sometimes in my head, but lately more often in the Outhouse. We’re down to the last tune, called EZ Sunday. I wrote it back in 1988 for a jazz band I was directing ...

  • Tom’s Tracks on the Tens: Solfigietto Jam
    It’s another installment of Tom’s Tracks on the Tens! Solfigietto Jam is on the Accessible Depth album, and arose out of a frustrating piano lesson. I had a college piano student who was “working” on the JC Bach piece Solfigietto – and it was OBVIOUS they were ...
