By Jim Wilke, Bernie Grundman, Michael Fremer Verified| Tracking Angle@ live at the penthouse 1963-1967The record that got me on the vibes bandwagon was That Swing Thing! by The Terry Gibbs Quartet (Verve V6-8447) released in 1961. I bought it that year at E.J. Korvette's in Douglaston, N.Y. off the Long Island Expressway. I was too young to drive of course, so probably was taken there by my mother or sister. It's also where I heard Bobby Timmons' "Moanin'" (for the first time) over a pair of Korvettes' XAM "housebrand" speakers and fell in love with the soulful tune.
By Jim Wilke| KNKX-FM (Tacoma, WA) Verified Pianist Danny Kolke is a major force in the regional jazz scene, particularly when you get beyond the eastern edge of Seattle. A regular in North Bend at his weekly haunt at Boxley's, he is also an educator and promoter of jazz events in Eastern King County. Grounded in standards, spirituals and the blues, Kolke's Trio plays Hoagy Carmichael's "Skylark" on this Sunday's Jazz Northwest.
