[JPL] Goin' To Chicago / Vonsky

[Kathryn Smith]

NOT TRUE
  He has begun to slow down a bit, with regard to taking all the gigs offered.
  However, Blowin' as strong as ever.

Going for Adds 4/1/08 

Three time Grammy(R) nominated guitar virtuoso Stanley Jordan makes his much anticipated return to the national spotlight with his Mack Avenue debut ''State of Nature.'' Featuring Jordan on both guitar and piano, playing both simultaneously at times, State of Nature also includes Charnett Moffett on bass, as well as Kenwood Dennard and David Haynes on drums.

State of Nature, which includes beautiful versions of All Blues and Song For My Father, also contains nine Jordan penned originals, as well as Jordan's interpretation of Joe Jackson's Steppin' Out.

Steven,

That's shocking! I hadn't heard of his passing and could find no 
mention of it through JIC, allaboutmusic.com, a google search, the jazz 
journalists association or even his own web page - 
members.tripod.com/go54321/vf/vonfreeman.html . I found one reference 
that had him playing a gig last month. Do you have any details? He's 
one of those bigger than life characters who just seemed like he'd go 
on forever.
