Mose Allison at Largo at the Coronet

Regarded as “the William Faulkner of jazz,” pianist and songwriter Mose Allison counts Elvis Costello, Van Morrison and Ray Davies among his legion of fans. Possessed with a honeyed voice and a humorist’s eye for detail, Allison is midway through a six-city tour previewing the spring release of his first album in 12 years, “The Way of the World,” produced by Largo favorite Joe Henry. Largo at the Coronet, 366 N. La Cienega Blvd., L.A. Sat.-Sun., 7:30 and 9:30 p.m. $35. (310) 855-0350.
