This week, our featured artist is pianist, composer and seeker of his ancestral African connection, Randy Weston; a set featuring one of the most recorded drummers in jazz history, Roy Haynes, from Coltrane to Etta Jones will follow. The show continues with a set of tracks recorded live at San Francisco's fabled night club the Blackhawk featuring Monk, Miles and Manne, and finally, a celebration of saxophonist/composer Wayne Shorter who sadly passed away this week.
