I'd like you to become
acquainted with our Authors by reading some of the articles they
have written for our big band broadcast blog, The
Palomar, and our "anything goes" blog, George's
Blog.
You'll also
find articles and book reviews about big band music that I wrote
for the former Chicago
Daily News, the Chicago
Sun-Times, and Chicago
Magazine between 1977 and 1985. I have edited and updated
them for Tuxedo Junction.
Moreover,
you'll find a number of other articles that I have written for
Tuxedo Junction since I launched this web site in October 2000.
When you click on a
button with an author's name on the left, you will be taken to
their articles. Most authors have written more than one. You can
also click the links to individual articles in the list below.
There are more than
60 articles listed below. I hope you enjoy each and every one.
