So I was just Twittin‘ along and saw that the homey AFTA-1 had just dropped a hot unreleased track from the vaults on his Myspace. “Flor Y Uva” sounds like a warm summer day…in outer space. Can’t wait for new music from this man. Ya’ll know the drill…support, BUY and have fun.

WaxPoetics finally brings us the “The Jazz Issue.” Cover stars are trumpeters John Coltrane and Freddie Hubbard, with additional features on Melvyn Sparks, Horace Tapscott, Richard Evans, and the Rhodes Piano, and a thorough and all-too-welcome profile of Creed Taylor–the genius behind the CTI / Impulse / Verve dynasty of diggers’ favorites from the 60s an 70s. Get it at Fatbeats..
