In my experience what is unique in Chicago is a high level of collaboration and a sense of community. The players are supportive of one and other. Surprising, I found this lacking in Madison’s jazz community where performance competiton pits players against one and other.

Under recorded Quartet IMO. Jason Stein, Keefe Jackson, Josh Abrams and Frank Rosaly in top form.

Yes, surprised me. A small community, no secrets as they say. I naively thought a smaller community would bring every one together for a common purpose. Limied resources ultimately influenced behaviors. I’ve stepped aside on the promotion side, as bringing in outside talent created additional friction. The Blue Stem thing marches on regardless.
