To Be Young, Gifted, Black, and a Jazz Enthusiast: Apparent Needle in a Haystack

About a month ago, Patrick Jarenwattananon of NPR's A Blog Supreme  put together a group of lists of recent gateway jazz albums from prominent young jazz enthusiasts and bloggers.  The Jazz Now Project was a rather brilliant idea and opened up a lot of discussion and awareness about the future of jazz and really shows what the field looks like right now.  Early on the the culmination of this project, Jarenwattananon opened the submission of suggestions not only to those he specifically asked but also to other readers of the blog and on the email list.  So it didn't take me long for me to submit my own Jazz Now list .  (And special thanks to him for linking the post on the compilation of Jazz Now submissions. I got my highest hit count yet of 29 readers because of him. I really need more readers.) When I emailed him the link to my blog for submission, Jarenwattananon thanked me for my list and mentioned that I was the only black guy to have sent anything.  He figured that this

On my 2023-- A Year Whittled Down to Just One Story

Image
It has been my lifelong ambition to never own a pet. Pets are impediments to personal autonomy. They're tethers to an unchanging state. They're the non-thumb having maintenance of the status quo up until the moment where it's not, where they cause damage-- to your property, to themselves, to your schedule, to your finances. I've never seen the emotional benefit of owning pets. For the price of always having to deal with some new hair that invades your belongings, we receive a warm body with a face that doesn't speak your language. The spontaneity in life that comes with having pets isn't from your deciding to change plans and stay out at night later or go off on some far off trip at the spur of the moment; such zigs and zags are a result of that supposed loved one running off into the neighborhood because of a loud noise or eating something left out on a counter that has to be pumped from their stomach at an exorbitant cost. At some point in my life,
