Wynton Marsalis and Eric Clapton Play the Blues

Traditionalist jazz trumpet titan Wynton Marsalis and British blues-rock guitar master Eric Clapton may have begun their careers very differently, but as both men have made the transition to elder statesmanship they've repeatedly reaffirmed their love for and dedication to the blues forms that gave rise to jazz and rock in the first place. This past spring they got together with an eight-piece band to explore those forms in front of a live audience at Lincoln Center; if you couldn't make it you have a chance to catch the event on film in select movie theaters - but for one night only. That's tomorrow evening, September 7th. Full details here.
