I recorded Jon Erik's interview on Columbia University's radio station
(announced to DJML on an earlier message) and am really impressed with a few
cuts of his latest CD:
"Blue Roof Blues: A Love Letter to New Orleans," on Arbor Records label.
Aside from Jon, the band included some young players probably not well known
outside of NYC, but their interpretations of both new compositions and well
known songs is really enjoyable and so avant garde!  You can order a copy
from his web site at:
http://www.kellsojazz.com/sales.htm or from Arbor Records
It is a great acoustic recording and a lot of fun...the NEW trad jazz lives
on into the the 21st century.

Here are some details from his site:

This creative crew, in addition to Kellso, is Evan
Christopher on clarinet, Matt Munisteri on guitar and banjo, Danton Boller
on bass and Marion Felder on drums.  Kellso once again proves that his is a
unique and exceptional voice on trumpet.
