From Bach to Calloway to the Woods at Night

Click the play button to listen

The boys warned you things were going to get eclectic, but they may have outdone themselves this time, as the selections run the gamut from a jazz trio reimagining Bach preludes to a cutting edge big band arranger/composer tipping the cap to Cab Calloway to a night in the Georgia woods and is what we're hearing even music? Plus, a thoughtful look at what happens when one of the better known ensembles of the eighties loses a pivotal member and expands its horizons past its signature format. During the pop matters segment strap yourself in for a quick trip to Japan..
