Richard Oyama, a friend of my friends Nina and Kevin, has, along with a friend of his, just started a blog called Jazz Advance, intending to "cover Sixties avant-garde jazz and the evolution of improvisational music in the U.S. to the present." He'll be linking my old Voice piece on the Contortions soon, and I'll write him a short intro.
