Because she must also be awaiting a resurrection of vinyl. It will be an equally long wait. 
The article that talked about the sax getting away from jazz...the sax has always been an instrument used in rock and pop music. It was never tied to jazz like the steel is tied to country so I discount his correlation.

I knew I should have kept my turntable with the 8 track player in it.  |

Susan, it's wonderful that you are finally getting the recognition you've deserved for so long.
Now PLEASE, press up some CDs for us poor forumites who no longer have a turntable.

Talking about the sax,when I first started in the late fifty's There were two things you HAD to have in your band if you wanted to work,A tenor sax and a B3 with a leslie,these two were on 90 percent of the records in that time frame.DYKBC.

...This LP-only release is Susan Alcorn's deepest, most adventurous --and sometimes darkest-- work to date. Beginning with a steel guitar reading of the Buddhist "Heart Sutra" that sends out sonic ripples like stones dropped into the void, it moves on to conjure moods and possibilities way beyond what most music even attempts. Among the stunning pieces here is a two-part tone-poem dedicated to the visionary big-band arranger Bob Graettinger that, while utterly engaging in and of itself, manages also to find a transformative place where Stan Kenton's elegant cool and Sun Ra's dangerous "Magic City" might intersect. As usual, Alcorn sings with the voice of the pedal steel, conveying a bold and resonant vision of spirit and compassion.
