Big Five Chord
I spoke with John Lundbom, jazz
guitarist extraordinaire from the band "Big Five Chord" at Blind Tiger
Ale House in NYC. We spoke about everything from his roots in Chicago,
to the genius of Ornette Coleman, Frank Zappa and Little Feat. Their new
album, "Accomplish Jazz", is a Jazz and Fusion extravaganza with some
beautiful, beefy compositions.
