JazzMando What's New - New from Vermont jazz mandolin superstar Will Patton, his fourth masterpiece recording, "6th St. Runaround." Following his previous three CDs, Latitudes and Departures, Peripherique, and String Theory, the multi-instrumentalist acoustic musician has returned to his traditional jazz roots with a collection of Bebop standards (Bess, Breakfast Feud, Webb City), injected a Mercer/van Huesen ballad (I Thought about You), and rounded the project off with his more familiar Gypsy/Choro signature sound.

A serendipitous meeting with fellow jazzmando legend, Paul Glasse (http://jazzmando.com/paul_glasse.shtml) prior to working the New Millennium Acoustic Design exhibit at the 2007 Summer NAMM (http://www.mandolincafe.net/cgi-bin/ikonboard.cgi?;act=ST;f=15;t=45756;st=0), the two titans met in an Austin, Texas recording studio to lay down a compelling track of bebop jazz mandolin history in Benny Goodman/Charlie Christian's "Breakfast Feud," reminiscent of a Tiny Moore/Jethro Burns collaboration. Also prominently featured in many of the selections is daughter Anna Patton who is a magnificent jazz clarinetist in her own right.
