We start the 741st Episode of Neon Jazz with actress, singer and artist force Luba Mason with a song off her latest album Triangle. After that, we hear from her husband in Panamanian Grammy Winner Rubén Blades. We also honor the life of late drummer Dottie Dodgion as we hear from Wayne Enstice, the co-author of her biography. From there, we run down the line of great new releases from cats including Matt Gordy and Jim Funnell. We finish the hour with music and thoughts from the veteran trumpeter Winston Byrd. Dig the music, my friends.
