Walter Lowe and photographer D. Shigley present a weekly Artists Eyes gathering inviting artists and the public. James Ellis, a seven reed player, discusses his life and modern jazz roots, comparing old time jazz to today’s scene and noting Armstrong, Parker, and Coltrane as influences.
In a candid talk, James Ellis suggests jazz careers now hinge on concerts clubs and recordings rather than brief free auditions. He reflects on balancing family needs with paying gigs and shares a desire to perform on stage and be compensated. A brief private concert follows as the writer and Ellis listen to the St Louis Blues.
