“Louisville is a place with no labels. It’s not the South, it’s not Chicago, and you don’t think of it as you think of New York or LA. It has some Southern romanticism to it, but also a Northern progressivism, this weird urban island in the middle of the state of Kentucky that has always provided a fertile, often dark, bed. For us, Louisville and the surrounding areas are the center of massive creativity and massive weirdness. The place has its flaws: You move away, but you’re always going to come back.” ThinkingStatesMovingDarkCreativityMiddleNew YorkBedAreasSouthLabelsIslandsMassiveFlawsChicagoSouthernUrbanRomanticismFertileWeirdnessKentuckyProgressivismLouisville Author:Jim James

“I visited New York in '63, intending to move there, but I noticed that what I valued about jazz was being discarded. I ran into `out-to-lunch' free jazz, and the notion that groove was old-fashioned. All around the United States, I could see jazz becoming linear, a horn-player's world. It made me realize that we were not jazz musicians; we were territory musicians in love with all forms of African-American music. All of the musicians I loved were territory musicians, deeply into blues and gospel as well as jazz.” WorldWellsMadeStatesMovingFormRealizingUnitedUnited StatesPlayerNew YorkBecomingMusicianJazzNotionAfrican AmericanRanTerritoryLunchOld FashionedHornsJazz MusicLinearDiscardedGrooveJazz MusicianAmerican MusicAfrican American MusicFree Jazz Author:Joe Sample
