Comment by Janet Stevenson on January 13, 2009 at 4:33pm: The one and only time I got to see Ella Fitzgerald (with Oscar Peterson!) was at Chastain, and I drove over from Birmingham for that. Atlanta has always been a center for jazz in the Southeast. While the emphasis here seems to be more on "smooth jazz", I can't think of a better Southern city for jazz.
