In A Mellow Tone
Wednesday November 4th, 2020 with Bruce Walton
Funding Drive #2 - music, of course, but mostly it's about supporting CKCU: ckcufm.com

I commenced my 29 (over-rated, or tragically-underappreciated?) years here at CKCU just before the 1991 funding drive. So this year's edition is #29 for me, and it doesn't get any easier. It doesn't feel natural to speak in a personal tone to people you neither know nor can see, and ask them for money. Yet that is what we do, year in and year out, to keep the Mighty 93 in your ears. So far, so good. Thanks to all CKCU supporters.

Hi Bruce - nice set! I had not heard much Chris McGregor beyond "Jazz / The African Sound" that Jazzman reissued a few years back.

Hey Ben - glad you liked the music. Very much just skimming the surface of a great area of jazz..
