Ein Politkrimi aus dem Kalten Krieg! Eine Denunziation überschreitet mehrere Landesgrenzen und beschäftigt noch die Nachkommen. Um diesen bösen Fluch aufzuheben, muss die Familie Hunter ihren Feind mit denselben Waffen schlagen. Wer das Hörspiel am Radio hören will: Freitag, 21.6.2024, 20.00 Uhr, Radio SRF 1 Budapest im Jahr 1956: In Ungarn bricht ein Aufstand des Volkes gegen die russische Besatzung aus. Der Bankier Tibor Hunter und seine Frau Maria müssen so schnell wie möglich mit ihrer Tochter Anna das Land verlassen und sich in England in Sicherheit bringen – doch die Grenzen sind zu. Tibor und seiner Tochter gelingt die Flucht mithilfe eines englischen Bankierskollegen. Maria aber verschwindet auf mysteriöse Weise Jahrzehnte später heiratet Tibors Tochter Roger Gale, den Sohn ebendieses Bankiers. Aber nicht nur das Gespenst der Flucht schwebt noch über der Familie – Tibor Hunter hat inzwischen auch herausgefunden, wer damals für das Verschwinden seiner Frau verantwortlich war. Neben der Liebe zu seiner Tochter treibt ihn seither nur eines an: sich am Denunzianten zu rächen. Dieser dreiteilige Retrokrimi des britischen Autors Val Gielgud geht nicht nur in die Augen, sondern auch in Mark und Bein!

Playlist   Track Time Start Time Opening and Introduction (Thom Holmes) 11:57 00:00 1.    Herbie Hancock, Herbie Hancock Demonstrates The Rhodes Piano (1973 Rhodes). A terrific flexi-disc produced by Rhodes and narrated by Hancock who tells an interesting story about his first encounter with the instrument on a Miles Davis session and then he walks the keyboard through a series of effects. He speaks with the authority of a proud electronics tinkerer who understands the nuances that make this instrument so beloved by jazz musicians. This flexi-disc was originally delivered in the November 8, 1973 issue of Down Beat magazine. I provide both sides of the disc, in entirety. Tunes included during the demonstration include parts of Watermelon Man, Maiden Voyage, and The Spook. Soloist, Rhodes Electric Piano, Voice, Herbie Hancock. I thought it would be wisest to lead off this podcast with an overview of the Rhodes even though it is out of chronological sequence, being from 1973. We then go back a few years to hear tracks in proper time order. 12:48 11:57 2.    The Don Ellis Orchestra, “Open Beauty” from Electric Bath (1967 Columbia). Alto Saxophone, Flute, Soprano Saxophone, Joe Roccisano, Ruben Leon; Baritone Saxophone, Flute, Bass Clarinet, John Magruder; Bass, Dave Parlato, Frank De La Rosa; Bass, Sitar, Ray Neapolitan; Congas, Bongos, Chino Valdes; Drums, Steve Bohannon; Leader, Trumpet, Don Ellis; Percussion, Alan Estes; Piano, Clavinet, Fender Electric Piano Fender, Mike Lang; Tenor Saxophone, Flute, Clarinet, Ron Starr; Tenor Saxophone, Flute, Piccolo Flute, Clarinet, Ira Schulman; Timbales, Vibraphone, Percussion , Mark Stevens; Trombone, Dave Sanchez, Ron Myers, Terry Woodson; Trumpet, Alan Weight, Bob Harmon, Ed Warren, Glenn Stuart. 5:33 24:44 3.    Miles Davis, “Stuff” from Miles In The Sky (1968 Columbia). I think this was Miles' first album recorded using the Fender Rhodes, played by Herbie Hancock. See the opening tracks from this podcast for a story about this session from Hancock. Bass, Ron Carter; Drums, Tony Williams; Piano, Fender Electric Piano, Herbie Hancock; Tenor Saxophone, Wayne Shorter; Trumpet, Miles Davis. 16:59 30:14 4.    Joe Zawinul, “The Soul Of A Village (Part II)” from The Rise & Fall Of The Third Stream (1968 Vortex). Zawinul, along with Hancock, was an early adopter of the Fender Rhodes.

Another Steve Allen record, whom we heard from in part 1 playing the Wurlitzer Electric Piano. Here is a selection from an album on which he plays the Rock-Si-Chord and occasional piano. Arranged by Oliver Nelson; Rock-Si-Chord, piano, Steve Allen; Drums, Jimmy Gordon; session musicians, Barney Kessel, Bobby Bryant, Larry Bunker, Roger Kellaway, Tom Scott; Produced by Bob Thiele. 2:30 51:24 6.    J & K “Mojave” from Betwixt & Between (1969 A&M, CTI). “J” is J.J. Johnson (trombonist) and “K” is Kai Winding (trombonist). Their ensemble included Roger Kellaway playing the electric clavinette. An example of using the clavinet in jazz. This was most likely a Hohner Clavinet Model C which had just been introduced in 1968. Recorded at Van Gelder Studios during late 1968. 2:31 53:54 7.    Albert Ayler, “New Generation” from New Grass (1969 Impulse). An electric harpsichord played by Call Cobbs adds some subtle comping to this buoyant tune written by Ayler, Mary Parks, Rose Marie McCoy. Baritone Saxophone, Buddy Lucas; Design Cover And Liner, Byron Goto, Henry Epstein; Drums, Pretty Purdie; Electric Bass, Bill Folwell; Piano, Electric Harpsichord, Organ, Call Cobbs; Producer, Bob Thiele; Tenor Saxophone, Flute, Seldon Powell; Tenor Saxophone, Vocals, Albert Ayler; Trombone, Garnett Brown; Trumpet, Burt Collins, Joe Newman; Vocals, The Soul Singers. 5:06 56:22 8.    Bill Evans, “I'm All Smiles” from From Left To Right (1970 MGM).

You can hear Sun Ra enticing other-worldly sounds from a Farfisa organ beginning at about 1:35. Recorded in 1970. Of the many electronic keyboards heard elsewhere on this album (and occasionally on this track), here the Farfisa is heard the most.

Recorded at Ballon Theater, Cairo, Egypt December 17, 1971. Sun Ra playing several electronic keyboards in turn, the organ, Minimoog, and Rock-si-Chord. What I hear is some organ (Farfisa?) in the opening, then Sun Ra turns to a wild exchange between the Minimoog (monophonic) and Rock-Si-chord (polyphonic) during the second half of the track.

The great jazz funk flutist Bobbi Humphrey released a series of albums around this time that often-featured fantastic synthesizer players. Here you can pick out the Minimoog by Don Preston and the ARP (Odyssey?) by Larry Mizell. The synths included here are in contrast to the more experimental sounds that Herbie Hancock was issuing at the same time.

EDINBURG, Texas - Former state Sen. Eddie Lucio, Jr., is recommending the revival of the Good Neighbor Commission.According to the Texas State Historical Association, the Good Neighbor Commission was established in 1943 as a state agency "to handle social, cultural, and economic problems of Mexican Americans in Texas and to strengthen political ties of Texas with Mexico and other Latin American nations.”TSHA said the commission's origins are traceable in part to President Franklin D. Roosevelt's fears that German sentiment was sweeping Latin America. The Good Neighbor Commission was placed on the state payroll in 1945. “In 1977 the commission was reviewed under the Texas Sunset Act by the Sunset Advisory Commission and retained as a coordinating, planning, and advisory agency responsible for overseeing migrant problems, developing national and international cooperation, and supporting educational exchange programs with Mexico,” TSHA said.“During the following ten years the duties of the Good Neighbor Commission were gradually absorbed by other agencies, however, and budget cuts in 1987 resulted in its abolition.”Speaking at the 6th Annual Conference on Border Studies, Lucio made known his fondness of the the Good Neighbor Commission.“Texas had a Good Neighbor Commissioner appointed by the governor, confirmed by the Senate, back in the day. And I can't see why we can do that. And then Mexico can do the same thing. A Good Neighbor Commissioner to Texas, or to the United States, but in Texas. So we can work together and strengthen our countries and our state,” Lucio said.The 6th Annual Conference on Border Studies was co-hosted by UT-Rio Grande Valley and the Universidad Autónoma de Tamaulipas. The theme of the conference was “Transborderism: Reimagining Social Space.”Speakers from 15 countries and more than 30 national and international academic institutions participated.According to the organizers, the conference sought to “facilitate discussion and research that will positively impact the Rio Grande Valley community as well as migrants, asylum seekers and border communities around the world.”A press advisory promoting the conference said: “The proximity of UTRGV to the U.S.-Mexico border is a special opportunity for scholars and researchers from around the globe to collaborate in a unique geographic region and present multidisciplinary research on the important and timely issues related to borders.”Here are the remarks Lucio made at the 6th Annual Conference on Border Studies. Editor's Note: Go to the Rio Grande Guardian International News Service to read the full story.To read the new stories and watch the news videos of the Rio Grande Guardian International News Service go to www.riograndeguardian.com.

Peace family.  Man, don't you just hate it when things just go awry?  Well, we tried to make it all go the previous week, only to have the whole broadcast have to be scrapped due to technical issues beyond our control.  We had a power surge hit us; it knocked some things off-balance, and we couldn't recover for the rest of the show, hence the shutting down of the whole broadcast mid-show.  With that said, we're ever thankful for the opportunity to get a redo. We charge it all to experience. With that said, onward with the show.  In this episode, we get it in with the great DJ Spinna's remix of a Roberta Flack classic, new music from Gene Moore Jr. and India Arie, a great new slow jam from newcomer Chris Walton, plus classics from The Commodores, James Ingram, Lillo Thomas, Bill Summers & Summers' Heat, and the list goes on and on.  We thank you all for the love you've shown us over the years.  If you have a request, by all means, drop us a line at greatsoulradio@gmail.com.  Thanks as always for tuning in, and remember--- tell a friend, to tell a friend, to tell a friend, to tell a friend, all about The Throwback Lounge.

Mike and I had a great time talking to Bill Summers (who was in Herbie Hancock's band The Headhunters)!  We talk about various drums, his first meeting with Herbie Hancock, and the famous sound Bill created for one of the best known Jazz songs ever ... called Watermelon Man... Bill even demonstrates for us how the sound was created. About Bill: During the 1990s, Summers played with Los Hombres Calientes along with co-leader of the group, trumpeter Irvin Mayfield and Jason Marsalis.  However, Summers has a much longer musical career, often working behind the scenes on film scores for various movies such as The Color Purple and the television miniseries Roots with Quincy Jones. He also played with Herbie Hancock during The Headhunters years, and is mentioned in passing by the liner notes of The Headhunters' 2003 release Evolution Revolution as contributing to that recording.   Check out the Headhunters newest album (sections of 4 of the new songs can be heard on our podcast) THE HEADHUNTERS - Speakers in the House released in November 2022: Speakers In The House is the legendary jazz-funk ensemble's first new album in 11 years. Co-lead by percussionist Bill Summers and drummer Mike Clark with support from NEA Jazz Master Donald Harrison on alto saxophone, The Headhunters latest studio effort arrives just in time to celebrate this American music institution's 50th anniversary in 2023, having formed around Herbie Hancock's classic recording, Head Hunters, in 1973. An eight-track set available on Ropeadope Records, highlights from Speakers In The House include the New Orleans' second-line grooves of "Rocking At The Mole House," the world music-influenced jazz-fusion of "Kongo Square" and a modern post-bop re-imagination of the classic Headhunters' composition "Actual Proof," first released on their 1974 album, Thrust. Joining Summers, Clark and Harrison for the recording are keyboardist Stephen Gordon and bassist Reggie Washington plus special guests Jerry Z on organ, One Drop aka Scott Roberts on drums, Fode Sissoko on Kora and Ashlin Parker on trumpet. ******** KNOW GOOD MUSIC can be found on Podbean (host site) Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Iheart Radio, Pandora and almost anywhere you listen to podcasts.     Visit our YouTube Channel where you can see 3 short video segments from our interviews.  Just search "know good music".   Thank you for listening! - Jim  COPYRIGHT CLAIM: The songs : "WE CALL IT THE BOX" by Bill Summers & Summer Heat / "OVER THE BAR", "STOOP", "STOP WATCH" and "ROCKIN' IN THE MOLE HOUSE" by The Headhunters used with permsission by Greg Lucas

This week on Comes A Time percussion legend Bill Summers joins Oteil and Mike to talk about his spiritual process of becoming a priest, Bill's incredible career as a drummer, and why you can never ask a question if you already know the answer. Bill also talks with the guys about the deep wounds of slavery in America, how winning a racehorse bet lead Bill to meet Herbie Hancock, and his decades-long connection with the city of New Orleans. Bill Summers is a New Orleans based Afro-Cuban jazz/Latin jazz percussionist, who plays primarily on conga drums. He played with Los Hombres Calientes through the 90's, and has since worked behind the scenes on film scores for various movies such as The Color Purple and the television miniseries Roots with Quincy Jones.

Back in the early 70s, drummer Mike Clark and bassist Paul Jackson were best friends living in East Oakland, playing flatbed gigs at Black Panther rallies, and generally raising hell. Cooking was not their forte, so the barbecue joint next door became a hangout. Mrs. Jones (of Everett and Jones) asked them to write a song to promote the spot, and they came up with the first version of ‘God Made Me Funky.' Bill Summers worked with Jackson at the local record store, and he jumped at an opportunity to open a show for Herbie Hancock in the Bay Area. He got the call to audition for Herbie's band, joining Herbie for the album “Headhunters“ and many more. Hancock took a new turn in the 70s, handpicking a new band and sound that would ‘take some more of the earth and feel a little more tethered.' The result was the first platinum-selling Jazz album in history. The lineup on that first album: Bennie Maupin, Paul Jackson, Harvey Mason, and Bill Summers. Mike Clark replaced Mason afterward, and the lineup continued on several key Herbie Hancock releases such as “Thrust” and “Flood.”Mike Clark and Bill Summers are two of a kind - they share a love for music that never dies. The pair kept The Headhunters alive, releasing two albums “Survival of the Fittest” in 1975 and “Straight From The Gate” in 1977, with Herbie as a featured guest. The chemistry between them is undeniable: They have persevered for over 40 years through industry setbacks, the death of band members, and more, to stay true to their mission with the same energy and zeal that the music demands. “We're not in a gym, this isn't a competition… this is art. What Bill and I and The Headhunters do is experience the moment and explore. After the count, we're in that moment, and there is no other. This is an act of passion, of love for humanity, and for our planet.” -Mike Clark“We live this every day. We have some secrets to give to the youth of the world. We're not musicians, we are physicians - we heal people.” - Bill Summers11 years after their last release, The Headhunters are set to release “Speakers In The House,” a new full-length album featuring Summers, Clark, NEA Jazz master Donald Harrison, Stephen Gordon, bassist Reggie Washington, and organist Jerry Z. The album also features Scott Roberts and Fode Sissoko on kora. The Headhunters spirit is alive and well on the album, which fuses the band's African and New Orleans influences with their ever-present technical jazz-funk, rooted in music history and growing in the present moment. ‘We've always made a statement as The Headhunters, and I'm looking at our longevity. Every time we've dropped notes on the wax, it has value and can influence people and change lives.” - Bill Summers“Speakers In The House” is set for release on November 4, 2022.Lean more about Lyte.Find more great podcasts from Osiris Media, the leading storyteller in music.

Episode 74 The Polyphonic Synth Journey of Fusion Jazz   Playlist Jan Hammer, “Darkness / Earth In Search Of A Sun” from The First Seven Days (1975 Atlantic). I am including two versions of the same track from Jan Hammer, a master synthesist who moved from monophonic to polyphonic synths gradually, making the best used of the expressive qualities of each technologh. This track is from 1975 and uses Oberheim modules, probably the 2-voice or even 4-voice, but along with the Minimoog and what sounds like an uncredited Mellotron. Hammer was insistent in the notes for this solo album that none of the sounds were made with the guitar. This makes the contrast of this track with the next version performed live with Jeff Beck and even more interesting contrast. Producer, Engineer, Piano, Electric Piano, Moog and Oberheim synthesizers, Drums, Percussion, Composer, Jan Hammer. 4:30 Jeff Beck With The Jan Hammer Group, “Darkness/Earth In Search Of A Sun” from Live (1977 Atlantic). Here is the same tune written by Hammer for his solo album, now performed live with Jeff Beck. I think one can assume that all soloing in done on a Minimoog while all other synth sounds, including strings, are provided by the Oberheim modules and Freeman string synth. Bass, Fernando Saunders; Drums, Tony Smith; Guitar, Effects, Jeff Beck; Moog, Oberheim, and Freeman synthesizers, Electric Piano, Timbales, Jan Hammer; violin, string synthesizer, Steve Kindler. 7:55 Billy Cobham, “Leaward Winds” from Magic (1977 CBS). Early days of the Oberheim polyphonic, used again as background comping and fills to back-up the guitar and piano leads. Bass, Randy Jackson; Guitar, Peter Maunu; Piano, Oberheim Synthesizer, Mark Soskin; drums, producer, Billy Cobham. 3:38 Herbie Hancock, “Hang Up Your Hang Ups” from Man-Child (1975 Columbia). Along with Jan Hammer, Herbie Hancock was an early pioneer of using polyphonic synths in his ensemble. While I don't hear the Oberheim module being played until about the 5:30 mark in this track, I wanted to include it because Hancock uses many synths at his disposal to achieve the overall sound. The next two tracks from the Eddie Henderson album Mahal used a similar but updated keyboard ensemble, including the Oberheim 8-voice polyphonic and Prophet 5 synths. Bass, Henry Davis, Louis Johnson, Paul Jackson; Drums, Harvey Mason, James Gadson, Mike Clark; Guitar, David T. Walker, Blackbird McKnight; Guitar, Synthesizer, Melvin "Wah Wah" Watson; Percussion, Bill Summers; Piano, Fender Rhodes, Arp Odyssey, Pro Soloist, 2600, String Ensemble, Oberheim Polyphonic Synthesizer, Hohner D6 Clavinet, Herbie Hancock; Saxophone, Flute, Ernie Watts, Jim Horn; Soprano Saxophone, Wayne Shorter; Soprano Saxophone, Tenor Saxophone, Saxello, Bass Clarinet, Bass Flute, Alto Flute, Bennie Maupin; Trombone, Garnett Brown; Trumpet, Bud Brisbois, Jay DaVersa; Tuba, Bass Trombone, Dick Hyde. 7:27 Eddie Henderson, “Cyclops” from Mahal (1978 Capitol). Bass, Paul Jackson (2); Congas, Percussion, Bill Summers; Drums, Howard King; Fender Rhodes, Clavinet, ARP 2600, Oberheim 8 Voice Polyphonic, Prophet-5, ARP Strings Ensemble, Minimoog, Yamaha CS-80 Polyphonic synthesizers, Herbie Hancock; Flute, Hubert Laws; Guitar, Ray Obiedo; Piano [Acoustic], Mtume; Prophet-5 Programming, John Bowen; Tenor Saxophone, Saxophone [Saxello], Bennie Maupin; Trombone, Julian Priester; Trumpet, Flugelhorn, Eddie Henderson. 5:19 Eddie Henderson, “Prance On” from Mahal (1978 Capitol). Bass, Paul Jackson (2); Congas, Percussion, Bill Summers; Drums, Howard King; Fender Rhodes, Clavinet, ARP 2600, Oberheim 8 Voice Polyphonic, Prophet-5, ARP Strings Ensemble, Minimoog, Yamaha CS-80 Polyphonic synthesizers, Herbie Hancock; Flute, Hubert Laws; Guitar, Ray Obiedo; Piano [Acoustic], Mtume; Prophet-5 Programming, John Bowen; Tenor Saxophone, Saxophone [Saxello], Bennie Maupin; Trombone, Julian Priester; Trumpet, Flugelhorn, Eddie Henderson. 5:17 Rolf Kühn. “Cucu Ear” from Cucu Ear (1980 MPS Records). This German disc features keyboardist Rolf Kühn and highlights the Roland Jupiter 4, a 4-voice polyphonic synth. Bass, N.-H. Ø Pedersen; Clarinet, Roland Sting Synthesizer, Roland Jupiter 4 Synthesizer, Roland Amps, Rolf Kühn; Drums, Alphonse Mouzon; Engineer, Walter Quintus; Guitar, Peter Weihe, Philip Catherine; Steinway Acoustic, Fender Rhodes pianos, Roland Amps and Echoes, Joachim Kühn; Reeds, Charlie Mariano, Herb Geller; Trombone, Egon Christmann, Wolfgang Ahlers; Trumpet, Klaus Blodau, Larry Elam, Mannie Moch, Paul Kubatsch. 5:05 Rolf Kühn. “Key-Alliance” from Cucu Ear (1980 MPS Records). On this track the Roland Jupiter 4 is played by Joachim Kühn, brother of Rolf. Bass, N.-H. Ø Pedersen; Clarinet, Roland Sting Synthesizer, Roland Amps, Rolf Kühn; Drums, Alphonse Mouzon; Engineer, Walter Quintus; Guitar, Peter Weihe, Philip Catherine; Steinway Acoustic, Roland Jupiter 4 Synthesizer, Fender Rhodes pianos, Roland Amps and Echoes, Joachim Kühn; Reeds, Charlie Mariano, Herb Geller; Trombone, Egon Christmann, Wolfgang Ahlers; Trumpet, Klaus Blodau, Larry Elam, Mannie Moch, Paul Kubatsch. 5:41 Didier Lockwood, “Ballade Des Fees (Quartet Without Drums)” from Live In Montreux (1980 Disques JMS). Look who's featured on this album by French violinist Dider Lockwood—it's Jan Hammer again. Only this time he's using an unnamed “polyphonic synthesizer.” Your guess is as good as mine on this one, although he was using Oberheim and Yamaha CP70 keyboards around this same time. Bass, Bo Stief; Drums, Gerry Brown; Rhythm Guitar, Marc Perru; Polyphonic Synthesizer, Jan Hammer; Tenor Saxophone, Bob Malach; Violin, Didier Lockwood. 4:50 Didier Lockwood, “Fast Travel” from Live In Montreux (1980 Disques JMS). Another track with Jan Hammer using an unnamed polyphonic synth. There is a really smart Minimoog solo beginning as about 1:21, polyphonic fills are most apparent around beginning around 4:08. Bass, Bo Stief; Drums, Gerry Brown; Rhythm Guitar, Marc Perru; Polyphonic Synthesizer, Jan Hammer; Tenor Saxophone, Bob Malach; Violin, Didier Lockwood. 7:06 Georges Acogny, “Karimagie” from First Steps In (1981 String). This track uses a Polymoog effectively for some nice runs and comping, beginning around 3:40. I do not know what instrument was used to create the the white noise heard in the opening and throughout since I don't believe you could do that with the Polymoog. Bass, Dominique Bertram; Composed By, Khalil Chahine; Drums, Paco Sery; Guitar, Georges Acogny, Kamil Rustam; Percussion, Sydney Thiam; Piano, Patrick Gauthier; Soloist [Acoustic Guitar], Larry Coryell; Soloist [Bass], Nicolas Fizman; Soloist [Electric Guitar], Kamil Rustam; Polymoog synthesizer, Rachid Bahri. 8:30 Georges Acogny, “1st La Rosée” from First Steps In (1981 String). Acogny is a guitar player so the polyphonic synth tends to play a supporting role to the string work on this track. In this case, the Prophet 5 is used, most notably at about 30 seconds into the track. Bass, Nicolas Fizman, Electric Piano [Fender Rhodes], Olivier Hutman, Guitar, Kamil Rustam, Guitar [Ovation], Georges Acogny, Piano, Jean-Pierre Fouquey, Soloist [Trombone], Hamid Belhocine, Prophet 5 Synthesizer, Didier Egea. 4:37 Combo FH, “Zelený Muž (Green Man)” from Věci (Things) (1981 Panton). Here is a short track that uses the Italian-made Farfisa Syntorchestra, a rare keyboard made in 1978 that had a split keyboard, part polyphonic string synthesizer and part monophone synth section. Mostly used on European tracks by German composers including Klaus Schulze, here is an unusual jazz fusion example from a group in the Czechoslovakia. This group was known for its unusual instrumentation, including lead bassoon heard on this track. Bass Guitar, Václav Pátek; Bassoon, Percussion, Milan Sládek; Percussion, Richard Mader; Organ, Farfisa Syntorchestra synthesizers, Percussion, Leader, Daniel Fikejz; Percussion, Bořivoj Suchý. 1:48 String Connection, “Quasi String Waltz” from Workoholic (1982 PolJazz). Recorded in Poland and distributed by the Polish Jazz Society. This album features some strings sounds played on the Polymoog, which was still being used for its unique sounds even by this late date, because the Polymoog had been retired by this time. Listen for fills and chords beginning around 1:08. Bass Guitar [Gitara Basowa], Krzysztof Ścierański; Drums [Perkusja], Zbigniew Lewandowski; Piano [Fortepian Akstyczny], Violin [Skrypce], Polymoog Synthesizer, Krzesimir Dębski; Piano, Hammond Organ , Polymoog Synthesizer, Trombone [Puzon], Janusz Skowron; Tenor Saxophone [Saxoton Tenorowy], Soprano Saxophone [Saxofon Sopranowy], Andrzej Olejniczak. 3:19 Mike Elliott, “For Janny” from Diffusion (1983 Celebration). Another interesting album of guitar-based fusion jazz with synthesizer touches. Seemingly self-produced in Minnesota. Although the Minimoog is also used on this recording, I selected a track that was primarily using the Polymoog, beginning around 50 seconds. Fender Bass, Rick Houle; Drums, Gordy Knudtson; Flugelhorn, Bobby Peterson; Gibson ES-347 guitar, Ryoji Matsuoka Flamenco guitars, solid body kalimba; Mike Elliott; grand piano, Polymoog and Mini-Moog synthesizers, Ricky Peterson; Producer, Mike Elliott. 4:42 Martin Kratochvíl & Jazz Q, “Trhanec (The Muffin)” from Hvězdoň Asteroid (1984 Supraphon). From Czechoslovakia, a brilliant ensemble of musicians led by keyboardst Martin Kratochvíl. Here is another mix of monophonic synths and the polyphonic Oberheim 4-voice, heard in the opening riff that's repeated throughout. Bass Guitar, Přemysl Faukner; Drums [Bicí Nástroje], Pavol Kozma; Electric Guitar [El. Kytara], Twelve-String Guitar, Fender Rhodes, Minimoog, ARP Omni, Oberheim 4-Voice Polyphonic synthesizers, Leader [Vedoucí], Engineer [Recording], Recording Supervisor [Recording Director], Martin Kratochvíl. 4:34 Opening background music: Short piece by Thom Holmes using the Arturia Prophet 5 plug-in. Opening and closing sequences voiced by Anne Benkovitz. Additional opening, closing, and other incidental music by Thom Holmes. For additional notes, please see my blog, Noise and Notations.

Herbert Jeffrey Hancock , 12 avril 1940, Chicago, Illinois, États-Unis Herbie Hancock est un excellent pianiste de jazz, chef d'orchestre et compositeur. Herbie est né à Chicago, Illinois. Il a fréquenté le Wendell Phillips High School à East Pershing Rd à Chicago, commençant initialement par une éducation musicale classique. Montrant des promesses remarquables dans son enfance, Herbie a été influencé par le groupe vocal Hi-Lo's. En 1960, il devient l'élève de l'artiste Chris Anderson, puis commence à travailler avec Donald Byrd et Coleman Hawkins. Herbie a également fréquenté l'Université Roosevelt de Chicago. Au fur et à mesure que sa réputation vieillissait, Herbie a commencé à collaborer avec Oliver Nelson et Phil Woods. En 1962, il avait signé avec Blue Note Records pour sortir son premier album 'Takin' Off''. L'album a attiré l'attention de Miles Davis sur Herbie, qui cherchait alors un claviériste. Il rejoint ensuite le Miles Davis Quintet en 1963, avec lequel il restera cinq ans, tout en continuant à sortir son matériel solo pour Blue Note Records. Son matériel solo pour Blue Note a continué jusqu'en 1969, avec les albums 'My Point Of View' (en 1963), 'Inventions and Dimensions' (en 1964), 'Empyrean Isles' (en 1964), 'Maiden Voyage' (en 1965), 'Speak Like A Child' (en 1968) et 'The Prisoner' (en 1969). Herbie a également joué sur plusieurs sessions d'enregistrement sur la côte Est pour le producteur Creed Taylor, qui comprenait la bande originale de "Blow Up", qui est devenue le premier de nombreux projets de bande originale de film. Herbie a quitté le Miles Davis Quintet en 1968. Il a sorti l'album 'Fat Albert Rotunda' un an plus tard pour l'empreinte Warner Bros. En 1970, Herbie étudiait le bouddhisme, ce qui l'a vu changer brièvement de nom pour son matériel enregistré, comme pour l'album "Mwandishi" en 1971. Mwandishi étant un nom swahili qu'il utilisait parfois ("Mwandishi" est le swahili pour "écrivain"). 1972, voit la sortie de 'Crossings', suivi de 'Sextant' un an plus tard (la première sortie après un changement de label chez Columbia Records). En 1973, Herbie sort l'album "Head Hunters", qui montre une émergence musicale vers un style plus funk/fusion. L'album comportait le morceau extrêmement populaire 'Chameleon'. Herbie commençait à maîtriser le synthétiseur et à développer son son, mis en valeur par une série d'excellents albums, dont 'Thrust' (en 1974), 'Death Wish' (en 1974), 'Flood' (en 1975), 'Man-Child ' (en 1975), 'Secrets' (en 1976) et 'VSOP' (en 1977). À cette époque, Herbie était un musicien de session vedette du tour de force de Stevie Wonder en 1976 "Songs In The Key Of Life" et fut plus tard le producteur du projet "8 for The Eighties" de Webster Lewis. En 1978, Herbie a sorti l'un de ses albums de fusion les plus commerciaux (et les plus réussis) dans l'album "Sunlight". L'album comportait l'hymne du club "I Thought It Was You", où Herbie utilisait son synthétiseur pour corriger toute "anomalie" dans sa propre prestation vocale. "Feets Don't Fail Me Now" de 1979 a continué le format, embellissant le son avec un format disco, présenté dans le single "You Bet Your Love". La même année, Herbie a demandé l'aide de Webster Lewis, Alphonse Mouzon, Bennie Maupin, Bill Summers et Ray Obiedo, pour un album enregistré "direct sur vinyle" au Japon, intitulé "Directstep" (qui présentait une face complète de l'enregistrement de l'album de "Je pensais que c'était toi". L'album 'Monster' des années 1980 présentait certains des enregistrements les plus émouvants d'Herbie, notamment 'Making Love', 'Stars In Your Eyes' et 'Saturday Night'. Il a immédiatement suivi l'album avec un disque plus fusionnel intitulé "Mr Hands" (avec "Just Around The Corner"). 'Magic Windows' de 1981 était une sortie beaucoup plus émouvante, qui a été suivie par 'Lite Me Up', une collaboration avec Rod Temperton du groupe Heatwave. L'album comprenait les populaires « Getting To The Good Part », « Motor Mouth » et « The Bomb ». L'album de 1983 "Future Shock" présentait le single à succès "Rockit" (souvent considéré comme la première chanson jazz hip-hop), qui présentait un son plus électronique que ses sorties précédentes. En 1984, "Sound System" présentait le morceau de fusion "Karabali", qui avait été diffusé à la radio à l'époque. En 1986, il enregistre l'album de la bande originale du film de Dexter Gordon "Round Midnight", pour lequel il remporte un Oscar de la musique originale. Après avoir sorti "Perfect Machine" en 1988, Herbie a quitté l'empreinte de Columbia après 15 ans. Il a signé par intermittence sur plusieurs labels, dont Qwest, qui a vu la sortie de l'album "A Tribute To Miles" en 1994. Cette année-là, il signe chez PolyGram Records, ce qui lui permet de sortir des disques de jazz pour Verve/Mercury Records. L'album de 1994, "Dis Is da Drum", présentait l'interprète dans un format jazz plus acide. Cette année-là, Herbie est apparu sur l'album de compilation de sensibilisation au sida de l'organisation Red Hot 'Stolen Moments: Red Hot + Cool'. En 1998, Herbie a sorti l'album «Gershwin's World», qui présentait des interprétations des standards de George et Ira Gershwin par Herbie, ainsi que Stevie Wonder, Joni Mitchell et Wayne Shorter. Il a sorti "Future2Future" en 2001, avec lequel Herbie a collaboré avec Bill Laswell et Rob Swift de The X-Ecutioners. Le trio a tourné pour soutenir l'album, se poursuivant jusqu'en 2005. En 2005, Herbie sort un album en duo intitulé "Possibilités". Les artistes en vedette comprenaient Carlos Santana, Paul Simon, Annie Lennox, John Mayer, Christina Aguilera et Sting. En 2006, Sony BMG Music Entertainment a récupéré les droits du catalogue Columbia de Herbie en publiant "The Essential Herbie Hancock". En 2007, Herbie a sorti l'album «River: The Joni Letters», son propre hommage à Joni Mitchell, le chanteur et auteur-compositeur. L'album comportait des contributions de Norah Jones, Tina Turner et Corinne Bailey Rae. "River" a remporté le Grammy Award de l'album de l'année 2008. En 2010, Herbie a sorti "The Imagine Project" et en 2013 a reçu le Kennedy Center Honors Award pour ses réalisations dans les arts de la scène. Différente de la carrière «motivée» de Miles Davis, la musique de Herbie a emmené l'artiste dans un voyage plus long, oscillant entre presque tous les développements du jazz électronique / acoustique et du R&B au cours du dernier tiers du 20e siècle.

Det var en gång då Ohios industristäder producerade de hårdast arbetande och mest innovativa funkbanden. Leverantörer av en vild partyföregångare till hiphop. När jag tar mig genom mytomspunnen musikmark på väg till forne Slave-trummisen och  sångaren Steve Arrington hör jag ekot från gulderan bland rostiga, övervuxna fabriker och halvtomma huvudgator. När det begav sig speglade fantasifull funk både social oro och framtidstro. Funk var den revolutionära känslan förvandlad till en fest. En giftig blandning av psykedeliska droger och black power öppnade en annan verklighet. En plats bortom förtrycket och fattigdomen. I avsnittet möter du även Zapp, George Clinton, Bootsy Collins, Sheila E, Bill Summers,  Leroy Sugarfoot Bonner och Diamond (från Ohio Players).

Cole WIlliams of the Greater New Orleans Citizen's Relief Team talks with host Max Rameau about liberating homes owned by the city of New Orleans, renovating them, and moving in unhoused people.Described as having ​“the heart of Bob Marley, soul of Sam Cooke and grit of Etta James”,​ New Orleans-based Cole Williams and The Cole Williams Band (CWB) has rooted their sound in the tradition of ​Gil Scott-Heron​, creating songs that reflect the everyday experiences and hopes of Black people all around the world. Their new album, ​“Give Power to the People''​ are anthems of the Movement for Black Lives and certainly for people struggling to make sense out of this dangerous and hopeful moment.Over the course of her career, Cole has provided vocals and percussion for Joey Bada$$, Chiddy Bang, Beats By The Pound, Aloe Blacc, Little Jackie, Diane Birch, Somi, Lisa Lisa and the Cult Jam, Kaissa, Dana Fuchs, Pimps Of Joytime, Holy Warriors (Harold Brown, Bill Summers, Bruce “Sunpie” Barnes), and commercial/tv recordings for CoverGirl, JCPenney, Suave, Smash, and Khloe and Kourtney Take Miami. CWBs' live performance highlights include The New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival, Joshua Tree Music Festival, French Quarter Festival, Blue Note NYC and opened for India Arie, Emily King, Ozomatli, The Wild Magnolias, Corey Henry and Treme Funktet, and Lauryn Hill.Following frequent street demonstrations at New Orleans' City Hall, Williams and T​he Greater New Orleans Citizens Relief Team​ organized and succeeded in getting the City to provide emergency housing in empty hotels in August 2020, and now they are renovating City-owned blighted houses with the presently unhoused people that will live in them. “We are calling all creatives to action. Now is the time for musicians, artists, dancers, rappers, poets, actors and actresses to unite and design a culture where we share our gifts, skills, talents and resources with the least of ours, specifically in the unhoused community, to create a world where wealth is shared equally, and white supremacy cannot survive”    The bedrock of The Cole Williams Band's new album and community organizing follows the course civil rights veteran, Ella Baker, taught that created a successful and historic freedom movement. ​“Give Power To The People”,​ articulates the core of their organizing: go to the poorest people, create a shared plan for advancement, raise the spirits and awareness of our people, gain broad support and make it happen. “We believe the practice of humanity is the blueprint for freedom and equality”.See more of the work of host Max Rameau at pacapower.org.

The Hump is thrilled to announce our 1st guest! The incredibly talented and creative bassist Edwin Livingston! Tune in to find out why I call him “The Silent Badass!”

Stephen Gordon's bio "I fell in love with all the sounds I heard as a child, so I pursued them" says Drummer/Pianist/Composer STEPHEN GORDON of Charlotte, N.C. - "Rather it was Gospel music at church, Funk and Motown with my Dad, Rock and Metal with my friends, Swing or European Classical literature with my peers and colleagues - I did it all." From the age of 4 years old, it became apparent that young Stephen would emerge into the world bringing forth sound, art, visual perspectives and living melodies to all that he pursued. Through the piano, taking lessons from the age of 5 with many teachers of different perspectives at the guidance of his parents and family, Stephen began playing the trumpet at age 12, which ventured into all brass, woodwinds, and eventually the drums and percussion. "They wanted to expand the Mass Choir at church, so my Dad and I became the rhythm section - That will always be my favorite rhythm section: Me and my Dad." From traditional and contemporary Gospel music, Stephen began sitting in and eventually gigging around Charlotte as a drummer and a keyboardist. "It was the Swing that I heard that I wanted to pursue. When I saw Terence Blanchard Sextet live at 15 years old, I said - Yeah, that's what I want to do; Swing." This path would lead Stephen to graduate high school from Northwest School of The Arts in Charlotte, N.C. and pursue touring and traveling internationally/nationally. "I got so many opportunities to travel with the choir, that when it came to gigging and touring with bands and my friends, I didn't see a difference; I was still going after that sound." These opportunities would lead to Stephen traveling and living in many different places and playing with some of the musicians and educators pushing the forefront of this music - pianist Ellis Marsalis, Jr., drummer Mike Clark, organist Joey DeFrancesco, trombonist Wayne Henderson, trombonist Fred Wesley, pianist Cyrus Chestnut, alto saxophonist Donald Harrison, Jr., percussionist Bill Summers, drummer/vibraphonist Jason Marsalis, alto saxophonist Wessell Anderson, vocalist Kurt Elling, pianist Aaron Goldberg, trumpeter Bobby Shew, trombonist Steve Turre, trumpeter Raymond Williams, Sr., bassist Roland Guerin, Poet Abidune Olyewole (The Last Poets), trombonist Tyrone Jefferson - to name a few. Stephen has performed in venues such as Tchaichovsky Hall in Moscow, Russia, The National Concert Hall in Taipei City, Taiwan, Opéra Bastille in Paris, France, The Kursk Philharmonia in Kursk, Russia, Lincoln Center in New York, New York, Ronnie Scott's in London, England, C Venues in Edinburgh, Scotland, The Village Vanguard, The Blue Note and The Jazz Standard in New York, New York, Blues Alley in DC, Babylon in Istanbul, Turkey, The North Sea Jazz Festival in Amsterdam, and many other great venues across the world. Beside playing and touring, recording and teaching have been prospects for Stephen to share in his talents and learn and grow as a musician and as a person. As Stephen resides in Charlotte, N.C., you may catch him all over the world on any given day, swinging and grooving. For all info, check out www.stephengordonmusic.com, as well as YouTube, Facebook and Instagram!
