Summary:

"The Grackle: Improvised Music in Transition was Ron Welburn’s quarterly devoted to Black and improvised music – jazz – as art and Black culture. In the tradition of the “little magazine,” The Grackle published articles by writers and on topics outside the mainstream press, in a non-commercial manner. Welburn notes that the title, The Grackle, refers to the bird’s symbolism in his and others’ poetry: “The grackle is a majestic blackbird and Black music is a majestic music.” As such, “The Grackle recognizes the Black roots and continuum of jazz as well as jazz’ international and intercultural appeal at home and abroad""-- RIPM Jazz
