Andrew Gilbert discusses the changes at JazzTIMES with James Gavin & John Murph, part 2

Staff and writers owed for past work are still waiting to get paid, and the publication has devolved into something unrecognizable.  Host Andrew Gilbert discussed the distressing situation and the larger landscape for covering jazz in-depth with two brilliant colleagues, John Murph and James Gavin
