Whatever instrument you are playing, you should study the history of the instrument from the very beginning. Many drummers think jazz drumming started with Elvin Jones and Jeff Watts. You have to find out where theses people learned from and go upstream from there. You can’t put student before the teacher. You have to start at the origin. Listen to Roy Haynes with Lester Young and Bud Powell. Listen to Art Taylor comp with his left hand like Bud Powell. - Joe Farnsworth

Big Apple Jazz & EZ's Woodshed is a daytime destination for those interested in jazz history. This is a first stop venue for all jazz fans looking for the real deal daily in Harlem. It's a jazz day club open to all in a ridiculously welcoming atmosphere. The love of New York's jazz history and current scene pours out of every corner of the place. Open from 10:30AM - 8:30PM with free live jazz daily: 2 bands a day starting at 2 and 5:30. Jam session on Sunday at 2PM. Gift shop and art gallery and jazz tours of NYC round out the experience.

Big Apple Jazz & EZ's Woodshed is located on a historic strip of Harlem's Jazz District. This street, once known throughout the jazz world as "The Corner," hosts the ghosts of Louie Armstrong, Fats Waller, Eubie Blake, Duke Ellington, Bird, Diz, and Miles, as well as Count Basie's Club, Well's Chicken and Waffles, Connie's Inn, Clark Monroe's Uptown House, Small's Paradise, the Lafayette Theater and legendary Tree of Hope. They can show you where Billie Holiday was discovered and where Bird used to jam in the 40's.

They celebrate New York City Jazz both past and present with cd's recorded live in all the historic and current night spots; and they sell the city's only collection of indie cd's by our outstanding pool of local talent seen on the scene nightly in hidden jazz haunts along the Big Apple Jazz tour route.
