When Keystone closed in 1983, it was one of the last San Francisco clubs to regularly book national and international touring jazz groups. Barkan is now the artistic director of Dizzy's Club Coca-Cola, the jazz club operated by Jazz at Lincoln Center in New York, and he's also a highly regarded producer who works with numerous domestic and European jazz labels. ©2008 http://www.HammondCast.com Todd Barkan http://www.toddbarkan.com/
