Ryan Estes sits down with Don Lucoff, founder of DL Media and Artistic Director of the Denver Jazz Fest. Don has spent nearly four decades in jazz as a publicist, producer, and festival programmer, working with legendary artists and labels like Impulse and Blue Note. Now he is helping build a national caliber jazz festival right here in Denver. The State of Jazz Don reflects on how dramatically jazz media coverage has changed. There was a time when major outlets regularly reviewed jazz records and featured artists on national television. Today, most of that coverage has vanished. Yet jazz itself has not disappeared. It continues to shape modern music. Artists like Kendrick Lamar have collaborated with jazz musicians such as Kamasi Washington and Robert Glasper. The influence is everywhere. As Don puts it, jazz can sell everything but itself. It is deeply embedded in popular culture, even if it is no longer center stage in mainstream media. Why Denver Is a Jazz City Denver has a stronger jazz pedigree than many people realize. The Front Range is home to major jazz education programs at the University of Northern Colorado, University of Denver, University of Colorado Boulder, Metropolitan State University of Denver, and Colorado State University. These institutions consistently produce world class players. Historically, Five Points was known as the Harlem of the West, a vital stop for touring jazz musicians crossing the country. Add the Beat Generation passing through town and you have a city that has long been part of America's cultural and musical story. Inside Denver Jazz Fest The Denver Jazz Fest spans 15 venues across Denver and includes performances in Boulder County. It blends national headliners with respected local artists, creating a citywide celebration. This year's lineup includes Pat Metheny, Branford Marsalis, Bob James, and John Beasley. The festival also honors the centenary of Miles Davis and John Coltrane with special tribute performances, including a presentation of A Love Supreme by Denver saxophonist Keith Oxman. The goal is inclusivity and accessibility. Whether you are a lifelong jazz fan or just jazz curious, there is a show for you. Where to Start Listening For new listeners, Don recommends classics from the Blue Note catalog such as Lee Morgan's Search for the New Land, Herbie Hancock's Maiden Voyage, Wayne Shorter's Speak No Evil, and Grant Green's Idle Moments. From Impulse, he points to John Coltrane's Crescent and A Love Supreme, Alice Coltrane's Journey in Satchidananda, and Pharoah Sanders' Thembi. These records are not homework. They are entry points into a vast and vibrant tradition. Final Takeaway Don's career proves one thing. You may not get rich in jazz, but you can build a life around passion, community, and great music. Denver Jazz Fest is more than a series of concerts. It is a statement that this city values artistry, education, and cultural history. Learn more and get tickets at denverjazz.org. See you there.

STANDARSEMANAL.-giant steps.-VINILOS MITICOS DEL JAZZ.- BOBBY HUTCHERSON-Cirrus 1974.-JAZZACTUALIDAD.-XAVIER CARLES - GERMANS HUMANS. Título: Cirrus. Músico: Bobby Hutcherson. Acompañantes: Ray Drummond (b); Larry Hancock (dm); Kenneth Nash (perc); Bill Henderson (Piano, Electric Piano, Fender Rhodes); Harold Land y Emanuel Boyd (sa y flt); Woody Shaw (tp). Fecha de Grabación: 1974. 17 y 18 abril. Lugar de Grabación: New York. Sello Discográfico: Blue Note. Nº de temas: 5. Formato: LP. Instrumento: Vibráfono Estilo: Hardbop Nº de Serie: BST 84 460 I Año de Edición: 1974. Duración: 40:30. Calificación: 4* Comentario: Este LP, grabado y publicado por el sello «Blue Note» en 1974, recoge el segundo encuentro entre el excelente vibrafonista, Bobby Hutcherson, y el maestro del saxo alto, Harold Land. Los resultados son bastante buenos y a ello contribuye el grupo que acompaña a estos dos maestros, formada por el pianista Bill Henderson, el trompetista Woody Shaw, el bajista Ray Drummond, el baterista Larry Hancock, el saxofonista y flautista, Emmanuel Boyd y el percusionista Kenneth Nash. La música es algo más relajada que sus colaboraciones anteriores, pero hay suficientes momentos de gran calidad en la música que ambos nos proponen. Xavier Carles publica "Hermanos humanos" adapta quince nuevos temas de Léo Ferré, el gran poeta de la canción. El poeta, rapsoda y cantante Xavier Carles publica "Hermanos humanos", su séptimo trabajo discográfico con arreglos y producción musical de Xavier Batllés. Quince grandes canciones que profundizan en el universo ferreriano, en su doble vertiente de canción poética erótica y de toma de conciencia frente a los abusos de todo tipo de poder. Una recopilación de canciones intensas y textos profundos que hacen de contrapunto a esta sociedad centrada en el entretenimiento y el espectáculo y que busca sólo el placer cotidiano mediante un consumo inmediato e irreflexivo: "lo que hace pensar", sin embargo, ensancha los márgenes emocionales y amplía el conocimiento, y este trabajo apunta directamente a sacudir la reflexión profunda y las emociones. Las cincuenta y cuatro páginas del librito que acompaña al CD incluyen letras de las canciones, créditos e imágenes. Las adaptaciones de los textos al catalán respetan la métrica y la rima de los textos originales, sin pérdida del mensaje original de cada canción. Sensibilidad y elegancia son los mejores calificativos que definen esta nueva recopilación de canciones adaptadas del gran cantante monegasco. Xavier Carles: La voz poética de la canción musicada en catalán. Poeta, rapsoda, letrista y adaptador de textos, Xavier Carles es una de las voces más singulares y sensibles de la poesía musicada en nuestro país. A lo largo de su trayectoria ha publicado siete trabajos discográficos, todos producidos por el músico y arreglista Xavier Batllés, en los que fusiona con maestría palabra y música. Sus proyectos han contado con la colaboración de más de sesenta músicos y cantantes de primera línea de la escena catalana e internacional, entre los que destacan Toti Soler, Paco Ibáñez, Jaime Sisa, Carlos Benavent, Javier Mas, Quico Pi de la Sierra, Manuel Joseph, Miquel Pujadó, Rusó Sala, Imma Ortiz. Apasionado conocedor de la chanson francesa, Xavier Carles ha adaptado al catalán obras de otros grandes referentes como Georges Brassens, Jacques Brel y Boris Vian. Algunas de estas versiones se pueden escuchar en el disco 'Petita Festa' de Toti Soler y Gemma Humet, donde también aporta su voz recitada. En 2017 recibió el segundo premio en la Muestra Literaria del Maresme por el poema Desconocida, que más adelante daría título a uno de sus discos. La canción que da nombre al primer volumen de adaptaciones de Léo Ferré, "Yo te doy" (2022), ha sido elegida por la casa discográfica francesa EPM para formar parte de una selección de canciones de homenaje al cantante, con motivo del 30 aniversario de su muerte.

     RIP Bob Weir 1947-2026 The passing of Bob Weir this last week brought us all shock and sadness. Speaking for myself I wasn't ready for Ace to be gone, and I know it will hurt for a long time. Since there there have appeared countless tributes and appreciations for his talent, character and life. I won't try to add another one here. What I've decided on is to present to you this week a show that meant alot to me, that took place back when I was doing a Grateful Dead show on KOPN radio in Columbia Missouri. This show took place in an intimate venue called the Blue Note in Columbia Missouri back on November 2nd, 2000. We were thrilled to have Ratdog come to our town, and to be playing across the street from our station. I think they put on a great show and I decided to play that here on the Deadpod in its entirety this week and next as my remembrance of Bob. I hope you enjoy it.  Bob Weir and Ratdog The Blue Note, Columbia Missouri 11/2/2000 - Thursday Set 1:   Blackbird The Winners When I Paint My Masterpiece Playin' In the Band I Need A Miracle * Little Red Rooster * All Over Now * Odessa *w/Johnnie Johnson-without Jeff Chimenti   You can listen to this week's Deadpod here: http://traffic.libsyn.com/deadshow/deadpod011626.mp3   Here's a picture of  Bob and myself after that show:

Vérforraló, békebeli vagy éppen avantgárd dallamok, összekoccanó poharak és izzó tekintetek – jazzklubokba járni azért jó, mert ezek a mágikus helyek a félhomályban születő improvizációk otthonai, ahol a zenészek és a közönség közös energiája élteti azt a műfajt, amelyért milliók rajonganak világszerte. Elég csak a legendás Village Vanguardra, aRonnie Scott'sra vagy a Blue Note egyre bővülő hálózatára gondolni. De mi a helyzet Budapesten?

Wat was Dobru's rol in het streven naar Surinaamse eenheid en onafhankelijkheid? Welke betekenis heeft zijn werk vandaag de dag? Ter gelegenheid van vijftig jaar Surinaamse onafhankelijkheid gaat journalist Stuart Kensenhuis in gesprek met Surinamist en Dobru-kenner Cynthia Abrahams. De avond wordt muzikaal geopend en afgesloten door zangeres Denise Jannah.‘Een boom, zoveel bladeren; een rivier, zoveel kreken; een volk, zoveel huidskleuren en talen…' Met deze iconische woorden opent het bekendste gedicht van de Surinaamse dichter, schrijver, politicus en nationalist Dobru (Paramaribo, 1935 – 1983). Zijn poëzie wordt nog altijd geciteerd bij nationale vieringen en symboliseert zowel de hoop op eenheid als de complexe realiteit van een multiculturele samenleving.R. Dobru, pseudoniem van Robin Ewald Raveles, streed voor de erkenning van het Sranantongo, de culturele eenheid van Suriname en de dekolonisatie van geest en samenleving. Hij gaf stem aan het cultureel nationalisme en speelde een belangrijke rol in de ontwikkeling van de Surinaamse literatuur.Naast zijn werk als schrijver en dichter, was Dobru ook politiek actief. Hij vertegenwoordigde de Partij Nationalistische Republiek in het parlement en werd na de staatsgreep van Desi Bouterse in 1980 benoemd tot staatssecretaris van Cultuur.Over de sprekersCynthia Abrahams is Surinamist, letterkundige en schrijver. Ze groeide op in Paramaribo en studeerde Engelse taal en letterkunde en literatuurwetenschappen aan de Vrije Universiteit van Amsterdam, New York University en de University of Texas, Austin.

Ze is de auteur van de biografie Robin ‘Dobru' Ravales (2014).Denise Jannah is een Nederlandse jazz-zangeres van Surinaamse afkomst. Ze trad over de hele wereld op voor o.a. Nelson Mandela en Bill Clinton. Ze won twee Edisons en stond zeven keer op het North Sea Jazz festival.

Manuela Furnari"Paolo Conte. Original"Mostra a Palazzo Mazzetti ad AstiPalazzo Mazzetti di Asti presenta una mostra inedita e dal grande fascino: “PAOLO CONTE. Original”, la prima grande mostra dedicata al grande poeta, cantautore e compositore italiano e alla sua espressione artistica nata ancora prima della musica: la pittura.Paolo Conte è uno degli artisti più amati del nostro tempo, icona indiscussa della storia della canzone d'autore, acclamato dai più prestigiosi palcoscenici internazionali, dal Blue Note di New York alla Philharmonie Berlin, dall'Olympia di Parigi al Teatro alla Scala di Milano.Che si tratti della sua musica o dei versi delle sue canzoni o dei suoi disegni, alla base del suo processo creativo c'è un aspetto fondamentale e immediatamente riconoscibile: il suo stile unico, inconfondibile, fedele solo a se stesso.In questa direzione si muove la mostra, la più ampia mai realizzata: 143 lavori su carta, eseguiti con tecniche diverse e in un arco di tempo di quasi settant'anni. Paolo Conte ha coltivato per tutta la vita una riservata passione per l'arte visiva, formandosi come pittore e disegnatore. Dopo aver esposto nel 2000 al Barbican Hall di Londra e in diverse città italiane fino al 2007, nel 2023 Paolo Conte è invitato a esporre alla Galleria degli Uffizi, confermando il suo legame profondo con l'immagine. I suoi lavori conducono lo spettatore al centro stesso della sua poetica: elegante, malinconica, jazzata e ironica.In mostra, opere mai esposte, tra cui Higginbotham del 1957, a tempera e inchiostro, dedicata a uno dei primi grandi trombonisti jazz. Altro nucleo importante della mostra è costituito dalla selezione di tavole tratte dalle oltre 1800 di Razmataz, l'opera interamente scritta, musicata e disegnata da Paolo Conte. Ambientata nella Parigi vitale e autunnale degli anni Venti, Razmataz celebra – dietro la misteriosa scomparsa di una ballerina – l'attesa e l'arrivo in Europa della bellezza della giovane musica americana, il jazz. Razmataz svela la capacità di Paolo Conte di fissare sulla carta atmosfere e personaggi, in una libertà formale che richiama le avanguardie del primo Novecento, “un periodo – afferma l'artista – carico per me di sensualità, di una immediata danzabilità che lo contraddistingue”. Infine una terza sezione di opere su cartoncino nero in cui Paolo Conte si affida alla suggestione delle linee e dei colori in un omaggio garbato, talvolta venato di ironia, alla musica classica, al jazz, alla letteratura, all'arte.Specificità della mostra è inoltre il percorso espositivo: le opere si susseguono secondo una scelta scrupolosa e sorprendente, espressione del suo universo poetico assolutamente singolare. E questo non poteva che avvenire sotto la guida stessa del Maestro Paolo Conte, e del suo sguardo autentico, inimitabile, original, con una sola avvertenza: “Lasciare al pubblico – riprendendo le sue parole – la possibilità di immaginare con libertà massima”.La mostra è un'opportunità rara per scoprire il lato più visivo e nascosto di un artista immenso.La mostra, con il contributo concesso dal Ministero della Cultura - Direzione Generale Biblioteche e Istituti Culturali, è realizzata dalla Fondazione Asti Musei, Fondazione Cassa di Risparmio di Asti, Regione Piemonte, Città di Asti, in collaborazione con Arthemisia con Fondazione Egle e Paolo Conte e REA Edizioni Musicali, con il contributo di Fondazione CRT, con il patrocinio della Provincia di Asti ed è curata da Manuela Furnari, saggista e autrice dei più importanti testi critici sull'opera di Paolo Conte.La mostra vede come sponsor la Banca di Asti e come media partner La Stampa.Manuela Furnari, saggista e docente, si è imposta all'attenzione nazionale con il libro Paolo Conte. Prima la musica, pubblicato per Il Saggiatore nel 2009, che costituisce uno dei ritratti più completi sulla figura del grande artista e uno degli studi italiani più innovativi di popular music. Tra i libri pubblicati, ha scritto per Feltrinelli Quando correva il Novecento. Uno studio su Razmataz con Paolo Conte, saggio che costituisce la seconda parte di Razmataz di Paolo Conte; è tra gli autori e i curatori degli Atti del Convegno Paolo Conte. Transiti letterari nella poesia per musica, pubblicato dall'Università di Urbino; è sua la firma del prestigioso saggio di sala Il Maestro del Teatro alla Scala in occasione del concerto-evento di Paolo Conte nel tempio della lirica.Ha all'attivo diverse presentazioni e partecipazioni a documentari (Paolo Conte. Una faccia in prestito, Sky Arte, Di là dal fiume e tra gli alberi, Rai5 e Rai Cultura) in qualità di esperta e autrice dei più importanti testi critici sull'opera di Paolo Conte.Diventa un supporter di questo podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/il-posto-delle-parole--1487855/support.IL POSTO DELLE PAROLEascoltare fa pensarehttps://ilpostodelleparole.it/

He switched to the soprano saxophone at age 16 after his mother gave it to him for his birthday as a hint, later moving to the tenor saxophone.Ravi did not initially feel pressure from his famous last name because, during the 1970s in the San Fernando Valley where he grew up, John Coltrane was still considered "underground" or "counter culture".The death of Ravi's older brother, John Jr., in an automobile accident when Ravi was 17, caused a "void" that Ravi later filled by studying his father's music. Ravi began listening to his father's records to gain answers for questions asked at parties, and through this, the music "hit" him.Ravi worked with key members of the John Coltrane Quartet, including joining drummer Elvin Jones's band in 1991 (though he felt he was "prematurely" ready) and later working with pianist McCoy Tyner in the 2000s.Ravi and Marcus discuss the meaning of being "ready" to perform at a high level, noting that it means being "prepared to do the job properly" and recognizing that evolution and learning are continuous processes.Host and Guest InfoHost: Lee Mergner (introduction), Marcus Miller (interview).Guest: Ravi Coltrane.This talk was recorded during the Journey of Jazz cruise. Marcus Miller provided the theme music, which is a clip from his song "High Life" on his album Aphrodesia on Blue Note.The talk was captured by Brian Ratchkco and his production team.Send us a text

For Mark Whitwell, music was always a temple. In the jazz clubs of New York such as Village Vanguard, Blue Note, and Sweet Basil, he felt the power of true presence. In this conversation, Mark is joined by Tony Glausi, a trumpet player and composer who carries the living jazz tradition with profound originality. Over the course of a month practicing together in Bali, a friendship formed through daily Yoga, shared breath, and an unshakable love for music. Tony opens up about the journey that brought him here. From his roots in a large Mormon family to years of exploring Buddhism, psychedelics, and the creative highs and lows of the music industry, he shares how Yoga has become his ground. Mark and Tony speak candidly about sobriety, the myth of the tortured artist, and what it means to truly merge with the music. Tony Glausi is a New York-based musician devoted to the jazz tradition. Through trumpet, piano, and composition, he explores the meeting point of Yoga and sound for the real life of every person. His most recent album, Awaken, came from a time of injury, reflection, and a deep return to what matters most.  Key Takeaways Yoga of Breath and Sound – Music and Yoga meet in the breath, in the steady exhale, and in the felt experience of being fully alive. Sobriety and Clarity – Letting go of substances isn't a loss. It is the return to real perception and sustainable joy. From Dogma to Direct Experience – Yoga isn't a belief system. It's how we are with what is. Horizontal Intimacy as the Foundation for Art – Real artistry comes through being fully with the life around us. The End of the Tortured Artist – Art does not need to come from suffering. With real Yoga, artists can thrive and create from wholeness. Concerts as Ceremony – Tony envisions a new kind of performance that begins in silence, in practice, in true receptivity.

In part one of this latest episode on Vinyl Community Podcasts, host David Bianco from the Safe & Sound Texas Audio Excursion YouTube channel sits down for a unique and insightful conversation with Don MacInnis, owner of the legendary vinyl pressing plant Record Technology Incorporated (RTI). For decades, RTI has been considered one of the gold standards in audiophile-grade vinyl manufacturing, producing records for labels like Mobile Fidelity Sound Lab, Blue Note, Analogue Productions, and countless independent artists who are committed to exceptional sound. What started as a three-day temp agency assignment in 1983, leading to Don and his wife purchasing the company from founder Bill Bauer in March 1992, has culminated in a life spent crafting and honing some of the signature sounds in your very record collection.  David and Don dive deep into the craft of vinyl production—from the technical challenges of plating and pressing to the everyday decisions that determine whether a record becomes a treasured listening experience or one that misses the mark. Don shares stories from the early days of RTI, including how the company grew during the original heyday of vinyl, weathered the rise of CDs, and ultimately found renewed purpose during the modern vinyl resurgence. David's thoughtful questions and genuine passion for analog sound make this conversation both accessible and deeply educational. Whether you're a seasoned vinyl enthusiast, a newcomer curious about what makes audiophile pressings special, or simply fascinated by the intersection of art and manufacturing, this episode provides a rich and engaging look at one of the most respected names in the industry. A must-listen for anyone who believes music should be felt as much as heard.

Episode 92: Joe Lovano. Joe Lovano is one of the greatest musicians of all time. A Grammy-winning saxophonist who's been on the cover of DownBeat magazine multiple times (as well as many others), a Blue Note Records legend with 25 releases, a Berklee alum, and he holds the Gary Burton Chair in Jazz Performance at Berklee College of Music, which he's had since 2001. He also happens to be my cousin and one of the biggest inspirations and mentors in my life. This was our first time ever doing something like this together. A 3-hour deep dive interview that covers (nearly) his entire career. We go into our family history, growing up in Cleveland, our Sicilian roots, his father Tony “Big T” Lovano, and how that shaped his sound and spirit. We talk about his time with Elvin Jones, Jack DeJohnette, John Scofield, Charlie Haden, Esperanza Spalding, Michael Brecker, McCoy Tyner, Paul Motian, Bill Frisell, Hank Jones, Dave Holland, Joshua Redman, Al Foster, and many more. Joe shares lessons from decades of leading bands, developing tone, mentoring young players, and living a full creative life with his wife of 50 years, Judi Silvano. Joe is one of the greatest musicians alive, a music historian, and an incredible educator and mentor.

On this episode the crew goes down the "Honey Hole". This is not the best places to find bourbon, but we tasted and review 4 different bourbons finished in a secondary honey cask. Seelbachs, Blue Note, Kentucky Nectar B1, and Woodford Reserve. While all of them are unique, there was a pretty consistent favorite. 

Grammy-winning musician and singer Wyclef Jean discusses his four day run of shows at the Blue Note, from Thursday, Sept. 11 through Sunday, Sept. 14.

When does Afro Blue and Smells Like Teen Spirit belong on the same record? When it's a Robert Glasper album! In 2012, Glasper's Black Radio brought together artists like Erykah Badu to bring a jazz standard, Afro Blue, back into the popular music canon. Black Radio hit #1 on the jazz charts, while simultaneously reaching #4 on the hip-hop R&B charts and #15 on the Top 200. The Blue Note pianist has been bending genres since the 90s, bringing together the best of traditional jazz and weaving it seamlessly with R&B, hip-hop, soul and rock & roll. And it all fits, because Glasper is equally at home in all of these categories. He grew up listening to all kinds of music, like Nirvana, Billy Joel, Busta Rhymes -- everything. Black Radio, he says, was a way to put his "life on wax". Rob Harvilla from 60 Songs to Explain the 90s: The 2000s joins Adam and Peter to dive into what makes this album great, and how it refutes from any attempt to categorize it. From the J. Dilla Influence, to Casey Benjamin's album-defining flute, to the Erykah Badu of it all, you'll never hear this album the same way again.And this album inspired what is possibly our best YHI outro yet. Let us know if you agree!
