Both shindigs, together with the Boston Jazz Festival, are the handiwork of Newport Impresario George Wein, who advertises his various wares under the slogan, "Have Festival, Will Travel." Survivors of Newport are also expected this summer in the eucalyptus-fringed Hollywood Bowl (the First Annual Los Angeles Jazz Festival), New York City's Randall's Island (the Randall's Island Jazz Festival), the Michigan State Fair Grounds (Michigan State Jazz Festival) and Tamiment-in-the-Poconos (the Duke Ellington Jazz Festival...
