Newport Jazz Fest Preview - part 1

We look forward to the Newport Jazz Festival 2014. This show features some of the great jazz artists that will be appearing on the first and second days of the festival. Claire and I will be covering the NJF for the 6th consecutive year. We will be posting photos and reviews of the concerts. Follow @digginjazz Twitter feed for all the live action. Next week I will continue the Newport Jazz Festival preview leading up to the event on August 1,2 and 3.
