Keep cracking those beats!!
Loving the beats, especially the tunes that you played before the last break, ....(....between 1:45pm - 2:05pm) 👍

2:23 PM, September 15th, 2024

Rob Bitschofsky (host)
Right on, KCTB! Glad you liked 'em. Moving into something a little more atmospheric in the next bit...

Such a wonderful flow today, Rob! Bravo! I was in the car when you mentioned Vijay Iyer. Couldn’t respond till now. Got to interview him years ago. Long story…I’ll tell you next time I see you. He did a recording with Mike Ladd called IN WHAT LANGUAGE? You must hear it. You will play it on the show, if you haven’t already.

Aw, thanks, Ron: Nice to have you on board today! Yeah, I was mentioning Vijay in context of that record he did with Arooj Aftab and Shahzad Ismaily. Will check out IN WHAT LANGUAGE for sure!

Rob Bitschofsky (host)
Hey Nice! I know, right? I like to slip that little gem into my playlists now and again. A perfect slice of Japanese-influenced hip-hop.

Neil & DL
Making my Sunday, as you always do, Rob !! You know there is nothing quite like finding an album and bringing it home to discover that you just found "gold" ! Well I believe you found the motherload, my friend. What a fantastic group he is playing with on this albuim........Jazz Africa is simply excellent !! Thanks!!

3:24 PM, September 15th, 2024

Neil & DL
And hi Ron!! Thought you had left on your trip already. I should not be surprised you are tuning in wherever you are. Best wishes for your well earned sabbatical !!

3:26 PM, September 15th, 2024

Rob Bitschofsky (host)
Hey Neil and DL! Aw shucks, I aim to please. Yeah, this record is delighting me. Some terrific playing and that uniquely South African joyousness underneath it all. I'd heard of Jabula before, but no Julian Bahula's Jazz Afrika. It's a delight!

3:29 PM, September 15th, 2024

Great musical Talent!!
- Marie Awadis ✅️ - Carlos Niño 👍

3:39 PM, September 15th, 2024

Rob Bitschofsky (host)
yes yes, GMT! Have played Carlos Niño before, but just heard of Marie Awadis a couple of days ago. Gotta check out the rest of the album, but I sure liked the first etude!

Hey Neil! I leave Friday for Copenhagen! Gotta start packing!

3:43 PM, September 15th, 2024

Rob Bitschofsky (host)
Aw, Ron, that's gonna be a blast! I'm jealous of your trip.

3:44 PM, September 15th, 2024

Rob Bitschofsky (host)
That new Bremmer/McCoy record I was playing later was from Copenhagen. Perfect to send you off with!

3:44 PM, September 15th, 2024

Rob Bitschofsky (host)
I mean earlier, not later. Duh.

3:45 PM, September 15th, 2024

Ron Steeds
Pretty excited - Copenhagen, Oslo, Bergen, and Stockholm. Can’t wait! We leave Sept. 20 and are back Oct. 8…
