Two hours from the composer, drummer/percussionist, vibraphonist, pianist and educator Joe Chambers, mixing tracks from his albums with tracks from other artists' recordings on which he plays.
By a nice bit of serendipity, next week on In A Mellow Tone, Ben Armstrong will feature his interview with Steve Haines, bass player on Chambers' 2021 release, Samba de Maracatu.
