It is a little strange to think that keyboardist Chick Corea (On The Cover) is in his<br />
70s. He seems ageless, not too far from the mop-haired, mustachioed genius that<br />
came up in the bands of Mongo Santamaria, Herbie Mann, Blue Mitchell and, most<br />
notably, Miles Davis (who never reached septuagenarian status). He is, simply<br />
put, one of the legends and Jazz at Lincoln Center (JALC) celebrates his wideranging<br />
achievements with a multi-night festival in his honor: Corea will join the<br />
JALC Orchestra at Rose Hall for performances from his songbook while the Allen<br />
Room will host Friends of Chick Corea: Musicians of the Future and Dizzy’s Club will<br />
showcase a number of bands fêting his legacy.<br />
While the piano is considered a percussion instrument, our other two features<br />
focus on actual drummers. Will Calhoun (Interview) is best known from the rock<br />
band Living Colour but has tons of impressive jazz credits and a new album on<br />
Motéma Music, which he’ll celebrate this month at Blue Note. And Mike Pride<br />
(Artist Feature), veteran of numerous avant garde jazz and rock bands himself, has<br />
a big month of May, releasing two different projects on AUM Fidelity: a new disc<br />
from his From Bacteria to Boys group, who play Greenwich House Music School<br />
this month, and his Drummer’s Corpse project, including fellow drummers Tyshawn<br />
Sorey, Ches Smith and Bobby Previte.<br />
In the other features, drummer Steve Williams (Encore) honed his skills with<br />
Shirley Horn for decades, experience he will bring to several groups this month.<br />
Legendary chamber jazz group Revolutionary Ensemble (Lest We Forget) is the<br />
beneficiary of a posthumous release on Mutable Music, which also happens to be<br />
our Label Spotlight. And local cornet luminary Kirk Knuffke writes our Megaphone<br />
and performs with a typically diverse range of bands throughout the month.<br />
Of course, there are CD reviews aplenty and an Event Calendar packed full as<br />
the spring thaw segues into the summer burn.<br />
We’ll see you out there...<br />

On the cover: Chick Corea (Santa Istvan Csaba / www.photo-santa.com)<br />
Corrections: In last month’s Lest We Forget on Borah Bergman, we mistakenly said that<br />
the pianist was influenced by Earl Hines after hearing him on Louis Armstrong’s<br />
“Potato Head Blues”; in fact the song was “West End Blues”.<br />
