Drum Machines and Griot Songs
by Patrick Burnette
This fortnight, Mike's cued up four newish releases with very different approaches to modern jazz. We have a couple piano trios (one of which calls in reinforcements from time to time), a duet with some space-age percussion, and a gigantic, sprawling big band project. Pat sneaks some jazz vinyl talk into pop matters.Playlist Discussion ...
(Mostly) Not the Usual Suspects
by Patrick Burnette
The Bastards delve into the fecund fields of fusion once again, focusing on that most electric of decades, the 1970s. This excursion sticks mostly to lesser-known stars in the fusion firmament, but there's one exception to this rule. That exception likes his finger-picking fast and his cover-girls nekkid.Playlist Discussion of Passport's album Hand Made ...
New from Known
by Patrick Burnette
For this particular fortnightly excursion, Mike suggested we look at four newish recordings by artists we've covered--or at least listened to a bit--before. The fresh from the familiar as it were. The results leave Pat speechless. Playlist Discussion of podcast's raison d'etre 0:30 Discussion of Jon Irabagon's album Server Farm (Irrabagast) 10:13 Discussion of ...
Out from the Vaults
by Patrick Burnette
The most recent Record Store Day episode is barely in the rear-view, but the boys decide to take on four more vault finds dug up by jazz detective Zev Feldman. Which ones are keepers and which ones get the dreaded label “redundant" and an invite off the island (or, at least, out of the record collection)? ...
Vocals? Sorta
by Patrick Burnette
From time to time this august podcast discusses the jazz vocal arts and opinions are expressed. Heavy hitters like Sinatra, Fitzgerald, Vaughan, and Torme have all been inspected. For this episode, the boys venture to the odder corners of the jazz vocal realm, looking at projects where the vocalist isn't the only--or sometimes even the main--talent ...
Mike on Brad
by Patrick Burnette
This fortnight's broadcast looks at four recent albums by up-and-coming artists--from the fairly well-known to the outright obscure. But hard-core listeners really want to wait for the so-called “pop matters" section, when we finally get to hear what Mike thinks of Brad Mehldau's autobiography. Is Brad teasing God? Or teasing us about God? Stay tuned to ...
Is It RSD Again Already?
by Patrick Burnette
RSD--or Record Store Day for you vinyl virgins--comes but once, er, or twice a year, and while the main focus is who will win the privilege to buy a color-vinyl edition of the Wicked soundtrack, there's a little bit of jazz sprinkled in there, too. The boys talk about four selections, three recently uncovered live dates ...
Melody, Please
by Patrick Burnette
The boys ponder a batch of 2025 releases on the search for memorable, hummable melodies. These being 2025 jazz albums, you can guess the results of the search. Still, much to enjoy is these very diverse selections.Playlist Discussion of Dayna Stephens album Hopium (Contagious Music) 5:54 Discussion of Sean Imboden's album Communal Heart (Self ...
Have You Met Mr. Jones?
by Patrick Burnette
At Mike's suggestion, today's podcast explores the truncated career of hard bop trumpeter Carmell Jones. We listen to four albums featuring the little-known musician and talk about the arc of his career, his work with running buddy Harold Land, and why he could'a been a hard-bop contender given the right circumstances.Playlist Discussion of Carmell ...
