One Man’s Jazz Show 1200th Show Special
by Maurice Hogue
This episode of One Man's Jazz marks the 1200th since its very first show at CKUW FM in Winnipeg. It moved over to taintradio.org in early 2012. One of the mantras of the show has always been that the show was about the music and the musicians who make it. I had no illusions of becoming--let ...
Diego Pinera: Odd Wisdom
by Phillip Woolever
In certain musical occasions the essence of time is more vividly pronounced than others. That equation is often pronounced clearly in the technique of how a drummer applies various rhythms, and the resulting effect those metrics have on a song or project.

Lara Solnicki: The One And The Other
by C. Michael Bailey
Among feelings are nervousness and anxiety. While synonymous in any thesaurus, the two words differ in the same way that thankfulness and gratitude differ, that is, in focus. Nervousness and thankfulness often have no focus, no definite object creating them. Anxiety and gratitude are those feelings, those reactions to the specific. Something clearly gives rise to ...

Monder / Malaby / Rainey: Live At The 55 Bar
by Mark Corroto
It is almost certain that guitarist Ben Monder was uncertain just what was likely to result from building a trio with saxophonist Tony Malaby and drummer Tom Rainey. Recorded at the threshold of the COVID-19 shutdown during Monder's monthly Tuesday residency at New York's The 55 Bar, this fully improvised “Suite 3320" can easily be taken ...
