Great news

I don't own a lot of jazz DVDs, but I'll be buying the new version of "A Great Day in Harlem," which is one of the coolest jazz documentaries I've seen. I used to have a VHS tape of it and it received repeated viewings until I gave it to my music teacher friend Carol Dewar to use in her classes. The addition of performance footage on the DVD sounds like a winner. For a nifty Web use of the famous Esquire picture that inspired the documentary, see harlem.org
