True stories

An old friend makes it to safety, and tells his story. It's really terrifying to think that there are hundreds of thousands of people in very similar situations... and with another storm bearing down, there could be many more by this weekend.


FMFM: Cannonball Adderley, Milt Jackson, Wyn Kelly, Percy Heath and Art Blakey grooving hard on Things Are Getting Better, a very well-recorded and fun date from 1958. The interplay is loose, and the tone is relentlessly upbeat. A pleasure to spin, especially with the Angels down by three runs.
