Happy 89th birthday to Mr. Sonny Rollins!

After some 21st century music from Hudson, Joshua Redman (his latest), UK pianist Zoe Rahman [whew!], Chicagoland's Geof Bradfield & Kamasi Washington, we preview the Baton Rouge River City Jazz Masters 2019-2020 season at the Manship Theatre (Eddie Palmieri, Eric Alexander, Nicholas Payton AND Jazzmeia Horn)! It's gonna be good, you bet. We continue our chronological celebration of Sonny Rollins— tracks with the Clifford Brown/Max Roach Quintet. This logically led to a celebration of Tadd Dameron, courtesy of Vinnie Sperrazza, Paul Combs, Vanessa Rubin & John Coltrane. Along the way Gregory Porter & Buck Clayton. Enjoy the show (we did).

R.I.P. Mary Alexander (Trane's 'Cousin Mary') July 23, 1927-August 31, 2019

R.I.P. Harold Mabern, Jr. (March 20, 1936-September 19, 2019)

Thanks to our top listeners of the week in: Kiev (Ukraine), Strasbourg (France) and Baton Rouge (US)
