International Association for Jazz Education
The International Association for Jazz Education has published a great promotional brochure for Geri Allen. It includes some fabulous quotes from Geri's career and her most recent recording, "Timeless Portraits and Dreams". Including this one:"Almost an omnibus work of the connection of the history of black-ness and music, with two Miles vets [Ron Carter and Jimmy Cobb] at her side, she weaves a spell mixing originals with classics that gives you an Ellingtonian feel to the whole thing. A work like this could not have been crafted without deep soul issues that needed to be laid bare. Geri Allen has a sure footed artistic statement here that, at the same time, has no dust on it.” — Midwest Record Recap
