The mid-twentieth century was not only a time when some of the greatest jazz music was created. It was also a period when many African American musicians converted to Islam. By the 1940s, there was a variety of different versions of the faith from which to choose in America. The Ahmadiyya movement had arrived in the United States around 1920; the Nation of Islam had emerged out of Moorish Science a decade later; and by the 1940s different currents of Sunni Islam had been introduced to port cities like Philadelphia, New York, and Boston. By the 1950s and 60s, those ports became gateways to a wider world—to the Middle East and Africa—as African American Muslims set out on musical, religious, and political pilgrimages among their coreligionists overseas. In this episode, we'll be following those journeys by the likes of Art Blakey, Ahmed Abdul-Malik, and Yusuf Lateef, as well as Malcolm X and the great John Coltrane.  Nile Green talks to Richard Brent Turner, author of Soundtrack to a Movement: African American Islam, Jazz, and Black Internationalism (New York University Press, 2021).   Album Links: Ahmed Abdul-Malik, East Meets West https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VmMR8J7yUEI Yusuf Lateef, Eastern Sounds https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YMTHsK3MlzA John Coltrane, ‘Naima' https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bPAC6zt_1ZM John Coltrane, A Love Supreme https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ll3CMgiUPuU

Tvennt í tilefni dagins, 30.janúar: Í dag er fæðingardagur bassaleikarans Ahmed Abdul-Malik. Hann fæddist 1927 í Brooklyn, í New York, og lést 2. október 1993. Hann er meðal frumkvöðla jazz-sögunnar, sá fyrsti til þess að blanda tónlist frá Mið-Austurlöndum og Norður Afríku við jazz. Nú í seinni tíð hafa menn verið að dusta rykið af plötum Abdul-Malik og enduruppgötvað þennan gleymda snilling frá Brooklyn. Freyr Eyjólfsson í Brooklyn sagði frá Abdul-Malik og lék brot úr lögum hans. - Og í lok þáttar minntumst við þess þegar Bítlarnir léku í síðasta sinn saman opinberlega - á þaki höfuðstöðva Apple-útgáfunnar við Savile Row í Lundúnum fyrir hálfri öld. - Þriðja fjölmennasta stéttarfélag landsins varð til á dögunum þegar Starfsmannafélag Reykjavíkurborgar og SFR, stéttarfélag í almannaþjónustu, sameinuðust. Til varð Sameyki með um ellefu þúsund félagsmenn sem starfa við almannaþjónustu hjá ríki, borg, sveitarfélögum og fyrirtækjum í meirihlutaeigu opinberra aðila. Framundan eru kjaraviðræður en samningar flestra félagsmanna losna í lok mars. Hvaða kröfur setur fólk í almannaþjónustu á oddinn? Forystumenn Sameykis; Árni Stefán Jónsson og Garðar Hilmarsson komu á Morgunvaktina. - Afríkulandið Súdan hefur logað í mótmælum undanfarnar viku, sem sögð eru þau mestu sem sést hafa í landinu í mannsaldur. Markmið mótmælenda er að steypa forseta landsins, Omar al-Bashir, sem setið hefur sem fastast í þrjátíu ár þrátt fyrir að hafa verið ákærður fyrir þjóðarmorð. Vera Illugadóttir sagði frá. - Niðurstöður nýrrar rannsóknar benda til þess að það skipti máli hvernig þolendum er tilkynnt um niðurfellingu kynferðisbrotamála. Lögreglan á Norðurlandi eystra tók upp nýtt verklag í fyrra og fá þolendur nú viðtal með réttargæslumanni í stað ópersónulegs bréfs, ef saksóknari ákveður að fella mál þeirra niður. Þetta er raunar hluti af nokkrum tilraunaverkefnum hjá lögreglunni í þágu kærenda. Og ekki er vanþörf á, enda bendir rannsóknin til þess að kæruferlið einkennist af langri bið og samskiptaleysi. Jón Þór Kristjánsson, fréttamaður á Akureyri, ræddi um þessi mál við Höllu Bergþóru Björnsdóttur, lögreglustjóra á Norðurlandi eystra og Karen Birnu Þorvaldsdóttur, frá Háskólanum á Akureyri. - Við enduðum á þaki 3 Savile Row í Lundúnum 30. janúar 1969, þar sem Bítlarnir spiluðu. - Tónlist: Alsarah & Nubatones - Habibi Taal; The Beatles - Don't let me down.

Ce soir nous recevons Yoram Rosilio et Jean Michel Couchet, le premier est l’instigateur du Anti Rubber Brain Factory, le second en est l’un des membres. L’A.R.B.F n’est pas un big band de plus mais un collectif animé par une certaine idée de la rencontre entre le jazz et d’autres traditions musicales. Mais l’ARBF est aussi l’une des formations issues de l’association du fondeur de son, nous en parlerons aussi avec nos deux invités. Côté musique, pour vous donner une idée, si vous avez aimé les expériences de Sun Ra en Egypte, le dernier cd de l’ARBF « Marokait » a de grandes chances de vous plaire.   En seconde heure, la thématique jazz et musique orientale se poursuit avec Pierre qui nous présente le dernier projet du label Umlaut, un quartet qui s’inspire de la musique d’Ahmed Abdul Malik. Philippe fait le parallèle entre l’historique Old And New Dreams et Old And New Song, récent projet du trompettiste YHoann Loustalot. Mylène nous présente en avant première le premier titre du nouvel album de Anthony Joseph, Martin part pour une virée estonienne avec le Estrada Orchestra et on termine par un hommage au grand Cecil Taylor.

A coincidence of dates and events has Sara Fishko thinking about some memorable artists - whose personal myths and mysteries fought with their work - in this edition of Fishko Files. Robin D.G.

Some of Monk's best live music is the subject of tonight's Jazz Feature This was all recorded at the legendary Five Spot Cafe in New York in August of 1958 and originally came out on two LPs then was re-issued on CD with more material. This band included "The Chicago Fire", tenor saxophone monster Johnny Griffin, who replaced John Coltrane as Monk's tenor saxophonist of choice. These are Monk's only recordings with Griffin as the Quartet's permanent member. The bassist is the steady and reliable Ahmed Abdul-Malik. On drums was the ultra dynamic and creative "Mr. Snap Crackle", the magnificent Roy Haynes. This was an exciting group with Griffin who was more outgoing and emotional than either his predecessor John Coltrane or his sucessor, Charlie Rouse. Monk is also more animated than usual and lighter and less percussive. These are great recordings that not only capture the music but the ambience of the club as well. Monk and griffin and company at the Five Spot.....Jazz at it's best!

De paseo por Sevilla nos encontramos con Javier, el guitarrista de la Plaza de España (http://www.elclubdejazz.com/roundjazz/no_jazz/guitarrista_plaza_espana.html). En esta edición de "Club de Jazz" del 26 de diciembre de 2012 los sonidos de la ciudad andaluza nos sirven el paseo y la música el recogimiento. La guitarrista islandesa Hafdís Bjarnadóttir nos regala villancicos tradicionales pero también la extraña belleza de su disco "Jaeja". A tono con el paisaje, el finés Verneri Pohjola nos cuenta su "Ancient history" y Scott DuBois dibuja los "Landscape scriptures". Africanismos en el encuentro entre el trompetista alemán Volker Goetze y el cantante e intérprete de kora senegalés Ablaye Cissoko; también en el "Malicool" de Roswell Rudd y Toumani Diabaté. Recuperamos "Rigth brain patrol", el encuentro en 1993 entre el bajista Marc Johnson, el guitarrista Ben Monder y el cantante y percusionista Arto Tunçboyaciyan. Abrimos las páginas de la revista francesa 'Jazz Magazine - JazzMan' e indagamos en su recopilatorio de cinco discos del que extraemos al trío Texier, Sclavis, Romano, al propio Louis Sclavis, los originales experimentos de Ahmed Abdul-Malik o el oud de Dhafer Youssef.

The late vibraphonist, Walt Dickerson, who was born in Philadelphia on April 16, 1928 and died on May 15, 2008 was an extraordinary musician who never compromised his music and remained true to his artistic muse. Dickerson's style is neither beholden to Lionel Hampton or the all-pervasive Milt Jackson but was influenced by saxophone players. Some critics called Dickerson "the Coltrane of the vibes" because of his sweeping style. Dickerson was gifted with impressive technique but was also a warm player. He achieved his 'sound' by various means.....use of the sustain pedal and by using mallets that had been stripped of the cloth around the heads. This album done with his favourite players including Philadelphia pianist Austin Crowe, Ahmed Abdul-Malik on bass and Andrew Cyrille on drums and was his third for the Prestige/New Jazz label It was recorded in January of 1962. Because of Dickerson's uncompromising attitude and artistic stance he was bypassed (after the initial favourable critical reception) by Gary Burton and Bobby Hutcherson but remained strong and committed. He recorded extensively for the Danish label, Steeplechase in the 70's and 80's and did everything from solo vibes to trios and quartets and duets with Sun Ra and bassist Richard Davis. Dickerson will be missed.
