In the last (for a little while, at least) of our one-artist focused podcasts, the boys take a deep dive into bassist/composer/bandleader Ben Allison's latest four releases. Ben's an exact contemporary of our intrepid podcasters, if a bit better looking and more talented, and they followed his career from early days until a few years back when they stopped picking up releases for a hot minute. Anyway, here's all the news on two projects by Ben's new trio as well as two quartet projects with slightly different line-ups. In pop-matters, Pat discusses some recent pick-ups from the seventies while Mike has made it all the way into the eighties.Playlist
