jazz and blogs #7

Matana Roberts
Less for the blog (though there are some interesting things there) than for the samples on the main MySpace page. I saw her once with Sticks & Stones, she's a great player with a beautiful tone. The AACM's motto could also be "tradition without convention" and Roberts emobdies that.
