Miles Ahead
Troubled Genius

By Allen Morrison
Miles Ahead, featuring actor/director Don Cheadle’s gritty portrayal of a drug-addled, gun-wielding Miles Davis, is the most anticipated jazz film in decades. The movie soundtrack features the work of Robert Glasper, Keyon Harrold and a host of other prominent musicians.

Features
Esperanza Spalding Inviting ‘Emily’ Out To Play
By Phillip Lutz
Identity, and the search for it, is at the heart of the Grammy-winning bassist/vocalist’s new project, Emily’s D+Evolution (Concord). The CD contains 12 songs that form a picture of someone determined to make sense of disparate sides of herself—and, by extension, of the world around her.

Arturo Sandoval - A Life of Gratitude
By Frank Alkyer
At 66, the Cuban-born trumpeter has a lot to be thankful for—like the day in May 1977 when he met Dizzy Gillespie, the man who helped bring Sandoval’s talent to the rest of the world.

Julian Lage - The Jazzman Cometh
By Bill Beuttler

Arclight (Mack Avenue), Lage’s fourth album under his own name, firmly establishes the guitarist as a bona fide jazz artist.
