Random Acts of Roach 3, Trudy Pitts, Pete Rugolo

This week, new and recent releases from Ethan Iverson, Ambrose Akinmusire, Mary Halverson, and others; We'll continue with Random Acts of Roach, a month-long centennial celebration of the legendary drummer Max Roach; and why not, I'll share a bit of my recent obsession with the Pete Rugolo Orchestra, and much more. Old, new, in, out... wherever the music takes us. Each week, we will explore the elements of jazz from a historical perspective.
