    An eternal fountain of adolescence, Jack Kerouac's "On the Road" went through many permutations between its point of origin, 1948, and its point of notorious, divisive publication, 1957. The best description of it came from Kerouac himself, in a journal entry written after his first cross-country road trip in 1948.

  11. Trumpeting legend Arturo Sandoval to play at the Alex Theatre

    No one taught a young Arturo Sandoval more about the mysteries of bebop and how to approach a life in music than Dizzy Gillespie. At times during their long friendship, the jazz trumpeters referred to each other as father and son. &ldquo;He was more than a teacher,&rdquo; Sandoval says of the bop originator. &ldquo;He was my hero first, and then he became my mentor. He helped me so much, man. Since the first day.&rdquo;
