George Freeman, Ermelinda Cuéllar, Bennie Moten & Lonnie McFadden
by Joe Dimino
We're kicking off the 902nd episode in style--with none other than the King of Kansas City Jazz himself, Lonnie McFadden. We drop the needle on a fiery cut from his 2018 album Live at the Green Lady Lounge, and it sets the tone just right. During a recent chat with Lonnie, he gave us the lowdown ...
Gravity and Resurgence: The Many Dimensions of Dexter Gordon
by Arthur R George
Long Tall Dexter; swinger, bebopper, saxophone balladeer; acting the dissipated genius expatriate who was not unlike himself in the movie Round Midnight; his dressed-up persona “Society Red;" the laconic elder statesman of his later years. Dexter Gordon is all those things, but more than a kaleidoscope of caricatures. Those who trace their lineages through ...
2024 Look Back
by David Brown
For this week's program, I want to pick up where we left off last week, revisiting albums released in 2024 that really made an impression on me. This is not a top ten list, but more of a mix-tape if you will of recordings I highly recommend from the past year. Artists include John Zorn's New ...

Ryan Truesdell: Synthesis: The String Quartet Sessions
by Angelo Leonardi
«L'idea di Synthesis--dice Ryan Truesdell presentando il progetto--è nata dalla consapevolezza che molti compositori di jazz traggono ispirazione dalla scrittura per quartetto d'archi di eminenti compositori classici come Bartok, Brahms e Ravel, e dalla necessità di trovare un modo realistico e al tempo stesso stimolante per creare musica insieme». Il giovane orchestratore, divenuto ...
Chris Rottmayer: Being
by Richard J Salvucci
One thing is for sure. If a listener comes upon a recording based on the music of Mulgrew Miller and Woody Shaw, there are unlimited possibilities for a harmonic education. Both players were revered for their sophistication and the beauty of the melodies they created. So it hardly seems odd that someone, here pianist Chris Rottmayer, ...
