The July issue of Jazzwise is features a stunning exclusive cover and revealing story inside on legendary British jazz saxophonist Courtney Pine, as he celebrates 40 years since the release of his debut album, Journey to the Urge Within, and headlines the big Love Supreme Jazz Festival on 4 July. Also in this issue is an in-depth chat with acclaimed UK jazz collective Empirical, as they return with a compelling new set featuring guest musicians Ivo Neame and David Preston.

There’s also a wonderful retrospective feature on renowned Jamaican-born trumpeter Eddie ‘Tan Tan’ Thornton, who is best known for his work with the Beatles and Bob Marley, but also made a name for himself on the British jazz scene with Jeff Clyne and Georgie Fame. We also salute the gentle giant of the tenor sax, Joe Henderson, as a new 1978 live recording sheds fresh light on his incredible musicianship. Rising alto sax star Lakecia Benjamin selects Kenny Garrett’s Songbook album as her musical Turning Point, and leading double bassist John Goldsby talks about his journey into jazz in 'The Player'.

Gifted singer Natalie Williams selects the five albums she can’t live without in 'Take Five', and it’s guitarist Julien Durand and virtuoso vibes player Simon Moulier who are this month's ones to watch in Taking Off. All this, plus the UK’s biggest jazz reviews section, which also includes album interviews with top US guitarist Mary Halvorson and trumpeter Ambrose Akinmusire as they release their debut duo album, and multi-award-winning British jazz singer Norma Winstone discusses a newly reissued live recording of a stunning set she performed with the NDR Big Band.
