Lots of new releases including two cuts apiece from compilations on Blue Note and Soul Jazz records, from labels Gondwana and International Anthem, and in the last half hour new deep/spiritual jazz from Dwight Trible, Enrique Rodriguez and Kahil El’Zabar
| Thank you to Bruce Walton for giving me the opportunity to fill-in on this week's program. Regular listeners will know that something is up with this different version of "In A Mellow Tone", (I have this one on an old LP and thought it apropos). You'll also know that something is up as many of these artists and much of this music has hitherto not been played before. It pushes forward, as jazz always does. I hope you enjoy this mix. |
