Colorado’s Democratic governor and his GOP challenger offered differing versions of the state in their first debate on Wednesday. Gov. Jared Polis and Republican candidate Heidi Ganahl clashed over the economy, crime, education and post-pandemic recovery. Ganahl bookended her speeches by attacking Polis over Colorado’s high fentanyl overdose rates. Polis defended his four-year record as governor by highlighting the state’s record job numbers. Wednesday’s debate was hosted by the Greater Pueblo Chamber of Commerce at Colorado State University-Pueblo. The candidates have other debates and issue forums in the works in coming weeks.

The live album “Bordeaux Concert” is the third show from jazz pianist Keith Jarrett’s 2016 solo tour released by the record label ECM. In a review, The Associated Press’ Steven Wine says the set captures Jarrett still in peak form, filling a summer night in southwest France with an improvised 13-part, 78-minute suite that’s an astounding mix of intensity, invention and introspection.
