"If I Was Blogtrollin', Would You Blogtroll Too?"

First off, HAPPY 80TH BIRTHDAY TO MR. BOBBY BRADFORD!
Wondering Sound's Kevin Whitehead Has a profile of the L.A. free jazz master here. The Beast also heard that the maestro will be playing a concert at Culver City's Mayme Clayton Library in November. Reportedly, Bobby has an awesome band, including the keyboardist for the original lineup of his Mo'tet, ex-Mother of Invention Don Preston.


The Beast has two new articles up on the Los Angeles Magazine site, one about The Go-Go's and one about the late Charlie Haden, who just passed away on July 11. If this isn't a testimony to the diversity of L.A. music, we don't know what is.


Here are some more Haden-related remembrances, plus some other interesting stuff from around the Web:
