The late South African pianist and composer Abdullah Ibrahim (aka "Dollar Brand") had a notable career, helped early on by Duke Ellington, and acknowledged later by Nelson Mandela, who called Ibrahim “our Mozart.” In 2019, Abdullah Ibrahim became a National Endowment for the Arts Jazz Master, and he released an album titled The Balance, (which was his 70th or 71st LP, and that's not including his work as a sideman, which might push the total album credits to over 100!). The Balance is full of "lush horn lines, lilting melodies, and uplifting chord progressions, characteristic of Abdullah's own particular brand of Township Jazz," and on this episode of Soundcheck, which was recorded in August 2019, Abdullah Ibrahim performs some solo piano works, in-studio.

This week's 95bFM Jazz Show with Def Jim features six tracks by Free Jazz/Jazz-Funk/Blues guitarist James Blood Ulmer (or his bands) who died early last month at the age of 86, plus six more from a typically eclectic selection of other artists including Abdullah Ibrahim (aka Dollar Brand) - who also passed recently - and a brand new release from Ambrose Akinmusire & Mary Halvorson. Many thanks to texter Deon who was able to answer the question of how Mr Ulmer acquired his epithet 'Blood', which apparently originated in his being affectionately dubbed 'Youngblood' by other musicians in his early playing days.

This week, Jason is joined by Kyle Cooke — entrepreneur, reality TV personality, DJ, and founder of Loverboy — for a conversation on what it really takes to build, scale, and fight to save a consumer alcohol brand in real time.Kyle shares the full story behind Loverboy today — from once scaling to 30 employees, 200-plus distribution agreements, and national attention, to now operating with just three full-time employees while navigating cash constraints, distributor challenges, and millions of dollars in debt.He breaks down the unique economics of the alcohol industry — including why brands are legally required to go through distributors, how wholesalers and retailers cut into margins, and why selling alcohol is far more complicated than most consumer products.Kyle also opens up about the financial pressure behind the scenes, including personally guaranteeing a $4.2 million SBA loan, still owing roughly $2.9 million, and needing to generate over $100,000 a month just to cover the loan payment after taxes.Beyond the numbers, Kyle shares the emotional reality of entrepreneurship — putting $500,000 of his own money back into the business, laying off employees, losing his COO, managing strained vendor relationships, and nearly facing the possibility of bankruptcy.He also explains how the support from Summer House fans helped save Loverboy through direct-to-consumer sales, merch pre-orders, and renewed demand after he vulnerably shared the company's financial struggles on the show.Jason and Kyle also get into the impact of reality TV on business, why Loverboy's fan base remains so loyal, how public attention can both help and hurt a brand, and why Kyle has intentionally avoided capitalizing on personal drama in a way that feels cheap or exploitative.From SBA debt and distribution nightmares to multiple revenue streams, DJing, brand partnerships, and rebuilding Loverboy with a leaner team, Kyle gives a raw and honest look at what it means to keep showing up when the business, the money, and the public pressure are all hitting at once.Kyle reveals all this and so much more in another episode you can't afford to miss!Subscribe to the Trading Secrets podcast!Host: Jason TartickCo-Host: David ArduinAudio: John GurneyVideo: Marc ColcerGuest: Kyle Cooke

In this episode, Kathryn Bricken, the founder and CEO of Doughlicious, shares how she turned a London-based cookie dough startup into a global frozen dessert powerhouse now in 6,000 U.S. stores, including Whole Foods, Target, and Kroger.

More and more, I've been collecting solo piano records, I imagine partly because I grew up listening to my mom play piano and partly because my ears have slowed down a bit as I've gotten older. Here's a first short stack of some favorites, which won't be the last. I have continued to be working with just one needle for most of this month, and this "mix" was admittedly done on just one turntable. But I just got my replacement styluses yesterday and I will be getting back to the usual programming soon!

The Jazz Episles were a very short lived Jazz group from South Africa. They were inspired by Art Blakey`s Jazz Messengers and like the early Messengers, they were a co-operative band. The band was the brainchild of pianist Dollar Brand, who after his conversion to Islam became Abdullah Ibrahim. The others in the band were Kippi Moeketsi on alto saxophone (sometimes called the Charlie Parker of South Africa), trombonist Jonas Gwangwa, trumpeter Hugh Masakela. bassist Johnny Gertze, and drummer Makaya Ntshoko. The album was recorded in Capetown in 1960. Sadly due to a variety of circumstances this was their only recording but it shows the strength of the spirit of Jazz that a recording of this quality could be made under the repressive circumstances of apartheid South Africa. The tunes include a trio track and a piano solo track by Dollar Brand. An ensemble tune by Brand and one tune by Hugh Masakela and one by Jonas Gwangwa and three by Kippi Moeketsi. Verse 1 stands as a monument to the qualities of freedom and joy of Jazz music.

Every once in a while, an artist comes along who gets so caught up in the sweep of history that the world seems to create itself for the artist's work, rather than the other way around. Dollar Brand came of age as a pianist in South Africa in the late Fifties, just in time for the multiethnic explosion of Johannesburg's Sophiatown. In the wake of the repression that followed the Sharpeville Massacre of 1960, he became a European exile. Within months, his music came to the attention of Duke Ellington who was so moved that he brought about the LP session Duke Ellington presents The Dollar Brand Trio on Frank Sinatra's Reprise label. Brand came to New York, subbed for Duke leading the Ellington Orchestra and attended Juilliard. But experiences with John Coltrane, Don Cherry and the progressive cadre of the Jazz world gave him a new appreciation of his African roots and he incorporated them into his music. He returned to South Africa, converted to Islam and became Abdullah Ibrahim. With these changes came a new style of music that embraced the multi-kulti, freedom-loving culture of his native Cape Town. His song "Mannenberg" became a theme for the anti-apartheid movement. After South African police fired on children during the Soweto Uprising of 1976, Ibrahim publicly came out in support of the African National Congress and subsequently returned to New York. Here he found a community of open-minded musicians and an audience that was supportive of his distinctively contemplative and deeply grooving music. After the Apartheid regime fell and Nelson Mandela became president, Ibrahim returned to Cape Town; In 2022, he is still recording and performing throughout the world. What's that you say? "Gary Lucas? That guy's a rocker! Who is he to talk about Abdullah Ibrahim?" A rocker? Guess what: so is Abdullah Ibrahim! Have you heard Gary's version of Ibrahim's "Bra Joe From Kilimanjaro"? You will have a whole different understanding of who both of these guys are. Besides, Gary Lucas is a true musical gourmand of the New York old school and I love to talk about music with him. I can't wait to hear what he has to say about his fellow iconoclast. As always, the WKCR archives have delivered some rare beauties for us to cherish.

Dr. Travis Zigler knows a thing or two about the entrepreneur's journey. Sometimes the path you end up taking as an entrepreneur is NOT the path you had in mind when you set out. Travis and his wife, Jenna, are both optometrists by trade, but they had an itch to build an eCommerce business. They started with sunglasses, then landed with a dry eye product, but what began as a product-focused company shifted to a customer-focused business. Here's a look at what we cover: How to cultivate raving fans. How Travis and Jenna shifted from selling plastic to serving a person. How and why they built a YouTube channel. How they almost sold the business for nothing but then turned things around. His most important lessons from success and failure.
Every once in a while, an artist comes along who gets so caught up in the sweep of history that the world seems to create itself for the artist's work, rather than the other way around. Dollar Brand came of age as a pianist in South Africa in the late Fifties, just in time for the multiethnic explosion of Johannesburg's Sophiatown. In the wake of the repression that followed the Sharpeville Massacre of 1960, he became a European exile. Within months, his music came to the attention of Duke Ellington who was so moved that he brought about the LP session Duke Ellington presents The Dollar Brand Trio on Frank Sinatra's Reprise label. Brand came to New York, subbed for Duke leading the Ellington Orchestra and attended Juilliard. But experiences with John Coltrane, Don Cherry and the progressive cadre of the Jazz world gave him a new appreciation of his African roots and he incorporated them into his music.

Turn your ideas into a reality with Shopify: https://bit.ly/3oKx0yj After growing up as a global citizen, Rhuigi Villaseñor settled in Southern California and found his twin passions: clothing and hustle. As a teen the young design prodigy used his eye to flip vintage clothes, which fattened his pockets but also deepened his knowledge. Knowing full well what he didn't know, Rhuigi relentlessly networked and apprenticed himself until he got his first break. A single t-shirt design of his, the bandana tee, rang out locally, until, in a moment of serendipity, Kendrick Lamar wore the piece on stage at the BET Awards and everything changed. RHUDE would be born shortly thereafter, and Rhuigi would go on to create a unique language at the intersection of Americana, Luxury and Streetwear that would drive the brand to the pinnacle of cool and also to commercial success. But of course not without his fair share of mistakes and missteps. Tune into this weeks episode to hear how he scaled the business and just kept bouncing back despite every adversity in his path.

After last episode's extravaganza we decided to keep our focus on larger ensembles for this outing. It's a mix of historical issues (some better engineered than others) and two nearly brand new releases. What do they have in common? Ain't none of them trios. Pop matters gets historical as we contemplate Pitchfork's deathless mediations on the "oldness" of Steely Dan. Jazz Station Big Band – MOODS; Woody Herman – MOODY WOODY ; Dollar Brand – AFRICAN SPACE PROGRAM; Michael Leonhart – THE NORMYN SUITES.
