I used to get the Crescendo for quite a few years. As you say Lance, very much a 'technical tips' type of magazine. There used to be a regular article by guitarist Ike Isaacs - a harmonic master who was apparently greatly admired by Joe Pass and our own Martin Taylor. I remember reading, with detached curiosity, Leslie Evans' amazing technical dissertations on sax embouchure, reeds, mouthpieces, lay etc etc. It was a unique magazine with it's own specialised readership I suppose. Talking of Leslie Evans, I am reminded of his brother George, a legendary player and arranger, who lived and played locally later in his life. I found this link below which may be of interest to younger players and jazz fans who may not know of him and his great achievements.
