AIRPLAY MONITORING BY

e had hoped to roll out our newest chart in this
issue, a College Jazz Chart, but we’ll have to wait
one more week. The chart, monitored and tabulated by Mediaguide, will include stations not part of the
current jazz panel. As I mentioned last week, we’re going
to introduce it as a “beta” – we’ll publish a few issues to allow labels, stations, and promoters to have a look-see and
get their ducks in a row before the final launch in conjunction with the ever-approaching fall semester.
I’m always fascinated by the careers of people who have
made a life in jazz radio, promotion, records, etc. It makes
me wonder if those opportunities even exist when I hear
the life stories of people who’ve had those amazing careers. This week, we feature another one of those folks
with an enviable resume, Todd Barkan, who now books
Dizzy’s Club Coca-Cola. Tad Hendrickson chats with
Todd about the club now that it has a year under its belt.

Appeal Made for Stem Cell
Donors for Michael Brecker
A
search is on for a suitable stem
cell donor for saxophonist Michael Brecker, who was recently
diagnosed with the blood cell disorder
MDS, myelodysplastic syndrome. According to a widely-circulated email
sent by Brecker’s wife Susan, a suitable
match has not been found among an
initial search, which included Brecker’s siblings and children.
Susan Brecker encouraged as many
people as possible with a similar genetic background to be tested for a possible match. According to her email,
a match for Michael would be most
likely to come from those of Eastern
European Jewish descent.
The screening involves a blood test
only, and can be done either at a marrow donation center or at a local lab.
Those interested in being screened
should contact a local blood bank, or
to find a donor center visit http://www.
marrow.org.
Susan also encouraged any groups
interested in organizing a drive for
Michael to contact Michael’s management office at (212) 302-9200 or at
info@michaelbrecker.com.
“Thank you so much for your love
and support. We are so grateful,” Susan wrote.
Brecker has cancelled all upcoming
tour dates while he is treated. Those
wishing to pass along well wishes to
Michael Brecker may do so by sending
cards in care of Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center, 1275 York Ave,
New York, NY 10021, or by emailing
info@michaelbrecker.com. JW

Bassist Al McKibbon, 86, Part of Early Latin Jazz Movement
LOS ANGELES – Bassist Al McKibbon, an early force in the incorporation of Latin rhythms into jazz, died
July 29 in Los Angeles. He was 86 and
had been in declining health.
McKibbon was born in Chicago,
but grew up in Detroit, where in his
early years as a musician he was a part
of a number of local swing bands before becoming part of touring groups
in the 1940s, including with Lucky
Millinder, Tab Smith, J.C. Heard, and
Coleman Hawkins, and was part of
Norman Granz’s Jazz at the Philharmonic.
McKibbon got his first exposure
to the nascent Latin jazz scene when
he replaced Ray Brown in Dizzy Gillespie’s band in 1947. He continued to
work with Gillespie from time to time
through 1950. McKibbon continued as
part of the growth of Afro-Latin jazz
in the 1950s with George Shearing
and Cal Tjader, working with Shearing from 1951-58 and with Tjader in
1958 and 1959.
In 1949, McKibbon was part of
Miles Davis’ nonet on sessions with
Gil Evans that would become Birth
of the Cool, in the 1950s recorded with
Thelonious Monk and Herbie Nichols, and was recorded live at Newport
in 1957 with Nichols and Hawkins.
McKibbon was part of the final Monk
recording in 1971. He was a member
of the Giants of Jazz in 1971-72 and
recorded with Benny Carter in 1976.
McKibbon settled in Los Angeles in the 1960s, where he kept busy
with studio work and live performanc-
es with singers, including Sammy Davis, Jr.
While McKibbon had no recordings as a leader, he is heard on countless albums and reissues. JW

Industry Q&A: Todd Barkan,
Artistic Administrator of
Jazz At Lincoln Center
H
aving a chat with Todd Barkan is an education in life, music and
business. Winner of the JJA Events Producer Of The Year, Barkan
booked his first bands in 1964, bringing bands like the Miles Davis Quintet and the Modern Jazz Quartet to Ohio where
he went to school. Barkan went on to be a working pianist who played with Grover Washington, Jr., his mentor
Rahsaan Roland Kirk and several Latin bands. While
holding down a day job as customs broker, he played
nights in the Bay Area and eventually bought Keystone Korner, in process turning the club into the seminal West Coast stop for many jazz musicians in the ’70s.
Along the way he’s produced countless records as well.
These days Barkan can be found most nights in Dizzy’s
Club Coca-Cola, a room he’s brought to life 365 days a
year with a mix of thoughtful and savvy booking.
– Tad Hendrickson
JW: One year under your belt in the new space. How do
you feel?
John Abbott
Todd Barkan
TB: I think it’s been one of the most hectic and activity-filled
passages in my life and for everyone else that I work with. I
think we’ve all had a very challenging and intense experience,
in the most positive of ways. The thing that is uppermost in
our minds has been how positive an experience it has been.
This helps us with the difficulties of the effort.
Can you name a highlight or two from the first year?
The three-week festival of Kenny Barron. Wynton and I had wanted to present
great keyboardists in a variety of settings with a variety of jazz soloists. That
was dream come true with Kenny Barron, because we were able to present his
sextet and his classic trio with Grady Tate and Ray Drummond.
Stevie Wonder wandering in with his entourage on a Thursday when pianist
John Di Martino and saxophonist Bob Kindred playing. Wynton was there.
Stevie came to sit in and they played the Lionel Hampton song “Midnight
Sun.” We had Stevie playing “Midnight Sun” on harmonica with Reginald
Veal on bass, Herlin Riley on drums, John Di Martino, Bob Kindred, Wynton

Q&A: Todd Barkan (continued)
Marsalis and Stevie Wonder. Now that is a nice bit of action.
We’ve had Ben Riley in playing with the Monk Legacy Band and had Cedar
Walton, Louis Hayes and Jimmy Cobb all coming in and hanging out on stage
together. That’s a wonderful thing that you want to hold on to and put up like
a picture because it is a beautiful sunset picture to have them there.
You have the Diet Coke Women in Jazz Festival coming up in September. Is
this to answer the criticism towards the lack of women in past bookings and
musical hirings?
John Abbott
How did it come about?
This is a good balance to the criticism
of the last 10 years of JALC programming. It’s good element to put in the
picture of what we do at Jazz At Lincoln Center. People are mad about it
taking so long or being a token operation, but this festival has been a pretty positive process. It’s a gig and it’s a
good one! No one is trying to make
political points here, we’re just trying
to celebrate a very important tradition.
There’s going to be some men sidemen
anyway, so it’s not going to be women and women only festival. It’s simply
that the women are going to be large
and in charge for a month. We can not
only live with that, but we can celebrate that.
Diet Coke brought the idea to us. Not only do they want to work with women
but also younger musicians as part of their outreach program. I liked the idea
from jump-street.
What have been the challenges of putting it together?
A lot of work evaluating material and people. You want to have the best festival possible, the fairest and the most balanced. It’s about doing the right thing
and doing it right. And you can’t include everybody, so you have to accept that
as well. But hopefully we’ll be able to work those that can’t do it in over the
course of the year. I’m not worried about Dianne Reeves getting a slot if she
wants one, or Renee Rosnes. They are going to play at the club all the time,
because they are major jazz artists, period. This is a chance to do something
with other people.
You’ve become the new club to reckon with on the New York scene. Do you
feel the squeeze of competition by being in this market?
continued ...
JazzWeek

I was sad to hear about the [closing of the] Jazz Au Bar because I never
thought that we competed – they are eight or nine blocks away on 58th Street
and the Iridium is over on Broadway and 50th. If you really check those places
out, these places have their own audiences. It’s simply an inexhaustible interchangeable group of folk.
Really?
I don’t feel that were in direct competition with the Jazz Standard or Sweet
Rhythm. I feel that it’s healthy to create a scene that is active, one that is a little more like the golden age of this music. That sounds idealistic, but I don’t
think it’s impractical. I wouldn’t want JALC to be sitting there by itself. It
wouldn’t be a healthy situation.
John Abbott
The late pianist Sir Roland Hanna with Todd Barkan.
continued ...
JazzWeek

True.
I’ve noticed it in-house a little bit. When we had JVC in here, the young pianist Eldar was in Dizzy’s and Chick Corea and Michel Camilo were across the
hall. I think that it inevitably mitigated his audience. But that’s small potatoes.
Our goal is to create a scene within a scene. We want a lot more jazz shows
happening in the house. That’s what Wynton dreams of, and my hats off to
him for dreaming that.
Has everything gone according to plan?
We did have to scale back, based on some
very pragmatic considerations. We have to
dot all our I’s and cross our T’s, and pay all
our bills. And yet present as much creative
music as we could. We did have to scale back
considerably from what Wynton originally saw. He shared those dreams in the beginning with me and we did some of that
dreaming together, along with the rest of
the staff. Some of the dreams came true and
some of them are still in development. The
operative word is “development.” They haven’t
been tabled.
John Abbott
Todd Barkan with Jimmy Scott
The financial realities are there in Dizzy’s,
but more manageable. They are as inexorable as the other rooms. Every week we have
2000 seats to sell, and there is nothing more
thankless than doing that in a jazz club.
I saw Cyro Baptiste up there. I heard that it wasn’t well received on all
fronts.
There was a good deal of examination of that booking as it unfolded. I’m happy as a lark that we did that with Cyro, but we will do other projects with him
in the future. I’m so happy we did it because it exposed a whole other audience
to the club. It was great having that kind of music in the room because there
we are there to put on shows and we have to be conscious of that.
What about Joe Lovano’s quartet?
The Joe Lovano booking caused a lot of controversy. A lot of the regulars, including staff members, were off put by [drummer] Paul Motian. They didn’t
get him. “Why did you get this guy? He doesn’t swing.” Now as an old crusty
jazz promoter, I think that is an interesting. Because he’s played with the greatest jazz musicians, going back to Paul Bley and Bill Evans. He’s a unique character in the classic sense of the word. Conceptually, he does things his own
way. Joe likes it because it allows space because Paul’s playing in-between the

beats. The audience was 50-50. Half thought he was magnificent, the other half couldn’t figure out what the f— he was doing. As the week went on,
they became more cohesive and played the same beats as one. But as it evolved,
there were people that couldn’t quite hang. Some people even left. People
thought there were two bands up there.
I recently asked Wynton about the JALC audience and
he made it clear that they, like himself, want to swing.
I’m gonna have to go with my buddy Wynton on that
because I feel that he’s inherently right. I think he’s had
a moldy fig designation unjustifiably pasted upon him
some of the time because he has a broader palette than
some people would recognize or has been given credit
for. Swingin’ is a part of jazz, but I happen to believe that
Paul Motian swings. I’m a pretty broad-minded individual, and that is why Wynton and I make a good team. And
I still support Wynton and that idea of swing is paramount importance in jazz. Not just as an abstraction or a
limitation.
So Wynton weighs in on the booking?
Wynton Marsalis, being the person he is, weighs in very
clearly and emphatically about things that he believes in
and would like to see. He doesn’t bite his tongue. But he
also respects me enough to give me a great deal of autonomy and I respect him for doing that.
I call him my boss, but I’m comfortable enough in myself to not be threatened by that. I’ve been doing this a lot
longer than he has. I was presenting Miles Davis when
Wynton was a baby. So I’m not looking up to him in the
sky. When I first presented him, he was a pup with Art
Blakey. Ironically, he did his first jazz for young people at
the Keystone Korner.

Dexter Gordon with Todd Barkan at Keystone Korner
How do you think Wynton will be remembered?
I think Wynton will be acknowledged as the greatest
trumpeter in the world that we have at this time. I think that his talent has
gotten lost in the shuffle at this time. I think the rhetoric obfuscates the core
truths of the situation. Wynton is simply one of the great living trumpeters for
now and of all time. Whether he’s greater than Freddie Hubbard, Miles Davis
or Fats Navarro is really irrelevant. Will he ever write as archetypal themes as
Herbie Hancock? I doubt it. At the same time, Wynton is Wynton. And he’s
a magnificiently gifted trumpet player with his own agenda. I respect him as a
player and as a great writer for septet and octet. And he’s a supremely wonderful jazz visionary. Those are my favorite parts of Wynton. JW

Reviews and Picks
JC Hopkins Biggish Band
Underneath A Brooklyn Moon (Tigerlily)
Bandleader JC Hopkins has worked and written for Norah
Jones, Madeleine Peyroux and even Willie Nelson, but
rather than playing up that folky and country influence,
Underneath A Brooklyn Moon is a swing jazz effort. Hopkins
tweaks the swing tradition at times by adding horn charts
that recall the complex tonal coloring of Gil Evans, and
his players (there’s
15 in all) solo in a
steadfastly melodic but modern way.
Rather than revamping standards,
the tunes here are
all originals and
the lyrical matter
is timeless without
being retro – singer
Queen Esther sells
them not as classic
jazz diva but more
as a blues shouter who likes to swing. Highlights include
the steady groovin’ “Small Town” and “Here Comes Love”
as well as the reminiscing in rhythm title track. More than
some stroll down memory lane, this is music that lives in
the here and now.

Tim Ries
The Rolling Stones Project (Concord)
Rumors of this project have been swirling around for some
time and made sense, sort of. Saxophonist Tim Ries had
cut a few bop discs before scoring a day gig in the Rolling
Stones horn section in 1999. In drummer Charlie Watts he
found a jazz ally – Watts has an ongoing love affair with
jazz. Recorded from 2002-4 when time permitted, the album features 25 musicians that range from Keith Richards
to Sheryl Crow to Bill Charlap to Bill Frisell recording jazz
versions of Stones tunes. Most the material was recorded on
the fly, and while some of it sounds like lightning in a bottle, some of sounds less than inspired. Highlights include a
nearly unrecognizable samba version
of “Street Fighting Man,” a soulful
version of “Wild
Horses”
with
Norah Jones handling vocals, and a
killing organ trio
version of “Honky Tonk Women.”
Less impressive is
the messy version
of “Slippin’ Away”
(with Crow’s background vocals buried) and an rudimentary version of “(I Can’t Get No) Satisfaction.” It must have
been fun for Ries to re-imagine songs he plays night after
night by putting himself front and center, and it’s clear that
he took pains to take a tremendously varied approach, but
the quality of the results are mixed.

MOB Trio
Quite Live In Brooklyn (Omnitone)
An acronym for Matt Wilson (drums), Ohad Talmor (saxophonist) and Bob Bowen (bass), MOB Trio is a collective
combo that nicely veers between freeform improvisation and
composition. Here on the band’s second album, which was
recorded live, the band highlights its six-year-old chemistry
in the tone playful without being rambunctious, melancholy
without being maudlin. Those looking for something upJazzWeek

MOB Trio (continued)
beat will find something to grab onto on the tune “CSXY,”
where the rhythm
section cooks as
Talmor extemporizes. The touching
ballad “Warmer In
Heaven” (which is
dedicated to the
late
saxophonist
Sam Furnace) is as
heartfelt as any eulogy. Subtlety and
chemistry are two
words that come to mind here again and again with each
listen.

organissimo
This Is The Place (Big “O” Records)
LANSING, MICHIGAN-BASED organissimo (with a small “o”
despite its Big “O” Records label) somewhat self-deprecatingly refers to itself as a bar band. But the group goes
well beyond that
as it stretches the
boundaries of the
traditional organ
trio with bits of
funk, blues, Latin,
groove and New
Orleans influences.
The trio is smack
dab in the soul
jazz pocket with its
opening “Wealthy
Street” and gets
down and dirty
with a Big Easy-influenced “Greaze Monkey.” “Tenderly”
shows the group’s softer side, as organist Jim Alfredson’s
bossa nova arrangement leads to some sweet guitar from
Joe Gloss. Versatile drummer Randy Marsh even doubles
on harmonica on the slow gospel-funk of “Brother Ray.”
Yet another gem on this CD is a venerating cover of Frank
Zappa’s “Peaches En Regalia.” More than the run-of-the
mill organ combo, organissimo should appeal to B3 lovers
and groove kids alike.

Editors’ Picks
Ximo Tébar Goes Blue (oMix Records/Sunnyside)
Spanish guitarist Ximo Tébar (pronounced chee-moe tay-bar),
known also for his fusion recordings, is most at home with an
organ trio. Tébar is joinged by some great veterans of the genre,
Dr. Lonnie Smith, Idris Mohammed, and on three tunes, Lou
Donaldson. All tracks are recommended, particularly Donaldson’s
Blue Note-era classics “Midnight Creeper” and “Blues Walk.”
Earl Klugh Naked Guitar (Koch)
The first album in six years from this acoustic guitarist is a soft
and initimate solo journey through some standards and lesserknown tunes. While solo guitar may be tough for some stations
to program, the album is a welcome return for Klugh, with lovely
arrangements – including a surprising bossa nova treatment of
Lennon and McCartney’s “I Want To Hold Your Hand.”
Jim Self InnerPlay (Bassett Hound Records)
While the tuba sometimes makes an appearance in large jazz
ensembles or in left-of-center groups, it rarely is the lead
instrument. The tuba, and Self’s invention the fluba – part
flugelhorn and part tuba and sounding much like a euphonium
– take center stage on this change-of-pace album featuring his
jazz tuba with strings. Check out Herbie Hancock’s “Speak Like a
Child,” which includes a nice duo with soprano saxophonist Dan
Higgins, and the Horace Silver composition “Strollin’.”
Marian McPartland Piano Jazz with Elvis Costello (Jazz
Alliance)
Recorded for McPartland’s NPR series in 2003, the host is paired
with one who is neither a pianist nor a jazz vocalist. But Costello,
perhaps with Bob Dylan the best songwriter of his generation, has
always known how to deliver a lyric, and does so powerfully on
this CD. While Costello may not be everyone’s cup of tea, fans of
his early work (yours truly included) are now solidly in jazz radio’s
demographic. They’ll likely appreciate his sensitive delivery of
these familiar tunes, including Costello’s “Almost Blue,” which
Chet Baker introduced to the jazz audience late in his career.
