FROM TODAY'S ARTSJOURNAL BLOGS
Harry Vetro’s New CD 

The young Canadian drummer Harry Vetro has followed his debut album as a leader, Northern Ranger, with a shorter CD of four tracks. The new album has a similar title, Eastern Stranger, but perhaps that won’t create confusion among Vetro devotees. – Doug Ramsey



The twenty-five record albums that changed my life (10) 

The track on this Duke Ellington LP that hit me hardest was “Sepia Panorama,” which featured Jimmy Blanton. I had only just started teaching myself how to play string badd, and Blanton was the first person ever to become a major jazz soloist on that notoriously unwieldy instrument. – Terry Teachout



The twenty-five record albums that changed my life (11) 

It wasn’t until I sat down with this album from my father’s collection that I started to grasp that its star was far more than just a charming but old-fashioned minstrel-show entertainer with a wall-to-wall smile. And I had no idea in 1969 that I was destined to spend much of my middle age thinking and writing about him. – Terry Teachout
