At 90, Charlie Burrell is both a pioneer — he has been called the Jackie Robinson of classical music — and one of the few surviving links to the glory days of midcentury jazz. He taught or mentored famed jazz bassist Ray Brown and his own niece, multi-Grammy winner Dianne Reeves.
Documentaries have lauded him. He owns a wall full of awards and proclamations, to which he rolls his eyes and says, "Enough!" in a mock bellow. Occasionally, he recorded. ("Man on First Bass." Check it out.)
Most important to his fans, Burrell still plays the random gig around Denver. He remains a natty fixture on stage, as befitting someone who wore a tuxedo for classical performances and, back in the day, pegged pants for his jazz sets.
