About Jazz Revisited, a Legacy of Jazz in Buffalo
Welcome to a series of live performances and interviews celebrating the renaissance of Jazz in Buffalo, N.Y. from 1975-1985.

Today these tapes have been given new life in the form of podcasts, produced at the Media Study Department at the University at Buffalo. Episode one features the music of Helen Humes, a Blues and Jazz singer from Louisville. On a visit to Buffalo, Humes was invited to sing at the Spider Web, a cabaret in town. Later she joined Count Basie’s touring band. Also, an excerpt of an interview with Barney Josephson, credited with reviving the careers of Jazz greats like Helen Humes in his New York City Club, The Cookery. Approximately: 30 minutes.
