Putting this episode together was a most enjoyable time; there was so much to choose out of a whack of new releases with a few "memories" too. On the new release side, you'll hear music from The Netherlands (saxophonist Hristo Goleminov, guitarist Ella Zirina and Tale Tellers From A Timeless Tribe), English free jazz saxophonist Ron Caines with the Raines-Archer Axis, California guitarist Karl Evangelista, the great trumpeter Ralph Alessi, drummer Jochen Rueckert, and the eclectic and usually- unpredictable Fire! Orchestra. Looking back, I popped in some music by Keith Jarrett, Sweden's Torbjorn Zetterberg, Les McCann, Portuguese bassist Carlos Barretto and Billy Bang. Hope you enjoy this one.
