Sud: Sud
by Jim Santella

Half of the program is original music created to explore the “what if” condition. What if Django Reinhardt were alive today? Wouldn’t his music have grown a little toward new directions? “Roots 6406” is a collaboration from the three artists that swings to a New Orleans shuffle rhythm colored with the blues. “Mojo” introduces ...

But recently, my position on the Hi-Lo's has evolved, particularly after watching them on newly uploaded YouTubes. ...
