One way for a musician to conjure rapture is through full-frontal shamanic assault, the sonic equivalent of the Orgasmatron machine that Jane Fonda's character encounters in Roger Vadim's 1968 sci-fi romp Barbarella. Funk is an ideal vehicle. But the sensations produced are superficial and short-lived. A less travelled path instead uses subtlety, understatement and nuance, and ...

Frank Kimbrough: The Call
by Dan Bilawsky
Pianist Frank Kimbrough's untimely passing--on December 30, 2020--left a void in the world.

Marc Copland: Alter Ego Lausanne 2022
by Dan McClenaghan

Bah Humbug, Weather Music, Stocking Stuffer Singles
by David Brown
Personally, I do not celebrate Christmas. But for this week's show, I figured I'd get in the spirit and sprinkle a few offbeat holiday tunes into the mix. We start off with a Latin set with Pete Rugolo and His Orchestra's “Jingle Bells Mambo" followed by Herman's Heat and Puente's Beat; then a set of meteorological ...
