grenert Posted July 17, 2008 Report Share Posted July 17, 2008 There seem to be a lot of jazz fans here, and a number of SF Bay Area folks as well. If you get a chance to make it out to Oaktown, the Oakland Museum of California has an exhibit, "Birth of the Cool," highlighting jazz, design and art from midcentury California. For a jazz newbie like me, it was very educational. Even if you are an expert, there are a lot of audio/video works to enjoy, and a nice collection of photographs of many jazz greats taken by William Claxton.

barmar46 Posted July 23, 2008 Report Share Posted July 23, 2008 Very nice, indeed. My daughter lives in Oakland, I'll let her know about this. Who am I kidding, I'm sure she's already, in the words of Mr. Pee W. Herman, "hip to that dude." Thanks for posting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
