The First Jazz Feature tonight is "An Introduction to Jazz" narrated by Julian "Cannonball" Adderley. It is a tradition on The Jazz Show every year paying tribute to this time of year..."back to school, back to work" etc. with this educational and entertaining overview of the history of Jazz. Although it was recorded in 1960 it has significance and relevance to today's Jazz of 2024. The second Jazz Feature is a significant album by one of the most distinctive voices of the alto saxophone, the late Arthur Blythe. Mr. Blythe was well known in Los Angeles as a member of that city's Jazz underground and when he emigrated to New York in the mid 70's and recorded for small labels. Blythe to the surprise of many was signed by Columbia Records and recorded his first album called "Lenox Avenue Breakdown" . It was edgy, energetic and consisted of only four long compositions by Arthur Blythe. His band was unique as well with Arthur's fulsome alto saxophone paired with flute, guitar, tuba bass and drums. Blythe is accompanied by James Newton on flute, James "Blood" Ulmer on guitar, Bob Stewart on tuba, Cecil McBee on bass, Jack DeJohnette on drums and Guilherme Franco on percussion. This date began a four album run for Columbia and strangely they all soon became collectors items as they were not kept in the catalogue. Perhaps they were too adventurous for the lay Jazz public. Tonight The Jazz Show presents the first and best on "Lenox Avenue Breakdown". Head's up!!!

Darek Oles (Oleszkiewicz) was born on February 20, 1963 in Wroclaw, Poland. At the age of five Oles began his music education at the State Music School in Wroclaw. Piano was his first instrument, but later he played guitar, electric bass and finally at eighteen years old, he switched to accoustic bass. While in his teens he played with amateur groups, evolving in popular music styles from rock, blues, jazz-rock to straight ahead jazz. In the early 1980's, Oles participated in various jazz festivals and national competitions for young musicians. In 1983, he was the most awarded musician at the Jazz Juniors in Cracow, winning the first individual prize, first prize for jazz composition and a second prize in jazz combo category. Later that year Oles was invited by Jan Ptaszyn Wroblewski, a jazz legend in Poland, to join saxophonist's quartet on tour.In the following five years Darek Oles was working steadily with some of the best jazz bands in the country such as: Zbigniew Namyslowski Quartet, Tomasz Szukalski Quartet, Henryk Majewski Quintet, Wojciech Karolak Trio and Andrzej Jagodzinski Trio and Jan Ptaszyn Wroblewski Quartet. With those groups he recorded for Polish Jazz, Polskie Nagrania, East Wind and also for the radio and television in Poland and abroad. Darek was touring extensively in Poland, France, Germany, Czech Republic, Cuba, Mexico and performed at major festivals, concerts and jazz club venues.In 1988, Darek Oles arrived in Los Angeles with a simple plan in mind: to broaden his musical horizon. One year later he received a full scholarship from California Institute Of The Arts and began studies with the legendary bassist Charlie Haden. After graduation in 1992, he accepted a teaching position at the Institute, where he has been conducting jazz ensembles and teaching bass ever since. Since 2002 Oles has been a jazz faculty member at the University Of California in Irvine.Aside from his teaching duties, Darek Oles has been very active as a performer and became one of the most sought after bass players on the West Coast. “Oles” (his American nick-name) had the opportunity to perform and record with the greatest masters in jazz.

The latest episode of the Burning Ambulance podcast features an interview with tuba player Bob Stewart.I have said all season long that we're going to be exploring a single subject for ten episodes, and that subject is fusion. But as I hope has become clear over the course of the five previous episodes, during which I interviewed techno pioneer Jeff Mills, drummer Lenny White, trumpeter Randy Brecker, pianist Cameron Graves, and guitarist Brandon Ross, most of whom come from different musical generations and are not peers, when I say the word fusion, I'm talking about a state of mind, not a style or a genre. It's not what you play, it's how you approach music-making.I understand that when most people hear the word fusion, they think of the big name bands from the 1970s: the Mahavishnu Orchestra, Return to Forever, and Weather Report. Those groups, and the Miles Davis bands from 1969 to 1975, and many other less immediately recognizable groups, all did a particular thing, playing extremely complex music that blurred the lines between progressive rock and jazz. We talked about those acts in the second and third episodes this season, with Lenny White and Randy Brecker, both of whom were around then and were actively participating in making some of that music.If you think of fusion as a mindset, though, rather than a style, the discussion gets a lot more interesting. And that's really how I prefer to think about it. Because the people who fall into the latter category are the ones who I find to be the most interesting, and the ones who are more likely to have careers where almost every record they play on is at least worth hearing, worth giving a chance. You may not like all of it. But they're creative enough that they've earned the benefit of the doubt.A perfect example of this is Bill Laswell, the bassist and producer. He doesn't use the term fusion. He calls what he does “collision music,” bringing together players from wildly disparate areas — stylistic areas, and literal geographical ones, putting African players together with guys from Southeast Asia and New York rock artists and whoever else he thinks has something to say — and seeing what comes out when they all work together toward a common goal. And sometimes you get something glorious, that you never could have predicted or imagined beforehand. Like pairing Pharoah Sanders with a troupe of Gnawa musicians from North Africa. Or putting improvising guitarist Derek Bailey together with drummer Jack DeJohnette, DJ Disk from the Invisibl Skratch Piklz, and Laswell himself on bass. I heard a recording of that group just a few days ago, and you might not expect it to work, but it really, really did.Bob Stewart is a fusion artist in that he takes an instrument that has had a relatively low profile in jazz for decades — the tuba — and created a variety of fascinating contexts for it. Not only on his own albums, but particularly in partnership with the late alto saxophonist Arthur Blythe. They began working together in the early 1970s, and Stewart's playing on some of Blythe's albums, most notably Bush Baby, where it's just the two of them and a percussionist, and on Lenox Avenue Breakdown and Illusions, where they had some incredible bands that included at different times James “Blood” Ulmer on guitar, Cecil McBee on bass, Jack DeJohnette on drums, James Newton on flute, and Abdul Wadud on cello. On the album Blythe Spirit, Blythe and Stewart record a version of the spiritual “Just A Closer Walk With Thee,” with Amina Claudine Myers on organ, that's absolutely amazing. We talk about that piece a little bit in this interview.He's worked with a lot of other artists over the course of his career, too, including Charles Mingus, McCoy Tyner, Carla Bley, Gil Evans, the Jazz Composers Orchestra, Bill Frisell, the David Murray Big Band, Lester Bowie's Brass Fantasy, and on and on. The reason he's able to do so many different things is that his approach to the tuba is really expansive, conceptually speaking. He treats it as much more than a substitute bass. He understands its full range, and the subtleties it's capable of expressing, and he uses it in ways lots of other people would never even think of. On his own albums First Line, Then & Now, and Connections — Mind the Gap, he puts together really unorthodox collections of personnel. For example on Then & Now, which was originally released in 1996 but just recently popped up on Bandcamp, some of the tracks feature two trumpets, trombone, French horn, and drums, while another is a duo with pianist Dave Burrell, and others have trumpet, alto sax, guitar, and drums. And Connections — Mind the Gap, which is from 2014, features tuba, guitar and drums, with trumpet and trombone on two tracks, but then on five others it's the core trio plus a string quartet. Now that's very much a kind of fusion — jazz which is already in an avant-garde zone, combined with chamber music.Bob Stewart is a fascinating guy, an endlessly creative spirit who has done a tremendous amount to change the image of his instrument in order to pave the way for guys like Theon Cross, who plays tuba with Sons of Kemet, or with Jose Davila, who plays with Henry Threadgill's Zooid. I really enjoyed this conversation, and I hope you enjoy listening to it.Music in this episode:Bob Stewart, “Bush Baby” (Connections – Mind The Gap)Arthur Blythe, “Lenox Avenue Breakdown” (Lenox Avenue Breakdown)Bob Stewart, “The Rambler” (from Then & Now)

James Newton interviews Kevin about Heroes of Ruin
The Made for TV Mayhem Show has returned to celebrate what would have been Charles Bronson's 100th birthday! To help us ring in this - the holiest of holy days - we invited James Newton of Newton Talks (https://jamesedwardnewton.com/) to discuss three of Bronson's lesser talked about small screen appearances: the pilot for Man with a Camera (1958), One Step Beyond's eerie entry The Last Round (1961) and the 1993 cop thriller TV movie Donato and Daughter! We had a lot of fun, although there were technical woes aplenty, so please be patient with any sound issues or choppy edits. We had to record in "chapters" because of several dropouts. But we gave all of our love to Bronson, and we hope you enjoy it!
Dušan Bogdanovič is literally the most interesting classical guitarist / composer. I can't begin to describe the influence and inspiration he's given me over the past decade or so. In this episode, Dušan and I talk espresso before we dive into aspects of his career ranging from improvisational adventures in 1990's Los Angeles to his recent retirement from the Geneva Conservatory and forthcoming book Harmony for Classical Guitar. We follow this up with another hour or so of shop talk about poetry, modern devaluation of form and meter, Balkan rhythmic asymmetry, African divisive rhythm, "multiple modernities", systematizing his polymetric and polyrhythmic pursuits, the qualitative experience of his internal clock(s), the intellectual potential of Elliott Carter's exhaustive set theoretic materials vs. the emotional potential of modal harmony, the extra spicy lydian flavors of Unconscious in Brazil, counterpoint with a less academic framing, recording with James Newton and Charlie Haden on the "very European" Early to Rise, the music of Egberto Gismonti, Dušan's thoughts guitarists like McGlaughlin/Metheny/etc, the microtonal works of Jeffrey Holmes, our mutual affection for Taoist esoterica, and a few thoughts on computer music. This conversation is a definite highlight of my year and I hope you enjoy listening!SHOW LESS

This week’s discussion is with pianist, composer and educator Eric Gould. We discuss the history of non-white composers and he shares his own story as an African-American composer. As a person from a family of composers, Gould is able to give unique perspective to what it means to be a part of orchestral music as a non-white person and educates us on the rich history of composers of color. Eric Gould has enjoyed a multifaceted career as a pianist, composer, arranger, and educator. He has performed and recorded in collaboration with world-renowned instrumentalists such as Jimmy Heath, Ron Carter, James Newton, Bobby Watson, Antonio Hart, Winard Harper, Cindy Blackman, Terri Lynne Carrington, Cecil Bridgewater, Robin Eubanks, and Leon Lee Dorsey in addition to leading his own trio in performances from the Midwest to the East Coast. His debut CD, “On the Real”, rose to number 11 on the national jazz radio charts in the first quarter of 1999. His second CD, “Miles Away… Wayne in Heavy” rose to number 10 on the national charts and to number 45 (out of over 2500 releases) for the year 2000 His third CD, “Who Sez?” sold well from coast to coast, and appeared on radio playlists nationally.

Listen to Emma Morgan sit down with Amy Flanagan, James Newton and @will_gilbey to discuss how practitioners bring contributors and their stories to life across the factual landscape in documentary, specialist factual and popular documentary.
My guest this week is James Newton who is a filmmaker and lectures in Film Studies at the University of Kent. We talk about making the transition from being a student to becoming a member of staff and around the pitfalls of meeting students in pubs and the changing culture around drinking beers and coffees, and James explains why pubs are today a gentrified space and an indulgence. Originally from Wolverhampton, James discusses what he knows about his parents’ occupations and we talk about the disjuncture between family members’ public and private profiles as well as about the baggage that comes with our professions and why we feel the need sometimes to be defensive. James doesn’t have many memories of things he liked doing as a child. He was quite sporty and does many of the same things now that he did then. We discuss the Guinness Book of Hit Singles, the influence of punk and agitation and how particular forms of music define us. James discusses the bands he enjoyed when growing up and we learn that he first went to a gig in 1992 and saw a number of bands at their peak when they played at Wolverhampton Civic Hall. Tarantino had a massive impact on James and we find out why his films spoke to him and the zeitgeist of the period, and we find out which is his favourite film and why. The conversation then turns to James’ long route into academia, which has included making a film set in a radio studio and doing a degree in Film, Radio and Television with Religious Studies. We talk about teaching techniques, why his teaching was once spectacular and why he hopes he hasn’t become jaded. James explains that he was interested in religion when undertaking his undergraduate degree and we find out that spirituality is something he thinks about a lot these days. In the final part of the interview James talks about the need to learn from past experiences, why it is detrimental to look too far into the past or the future, why he doesn’t think he has fulfilled the dreams he’s had since he was young and why nostalgia is not simply about the past but the present and the importance of seizing control of the narrative. Please note: Opinions expressed are solely those of Chris Deacy and James Newton and do not necessarily represent the views or opinions of the University of Kent.

This latter-day masterpiece by one of the most distinctive voices of the alto saxophone is the first Feature of the new year. Arthur Blythe is an extraordinary alto saxophonist and composer who while playing music with an 'edge' is also lyrical and accessible. Blythe can perform in any context but his own recordings are usually with unusual mixes, not your standard traditional setup with trumpet, alto, piano, bass and drums. Arthur works things differently and this recording, his debut for the major Columbia label, is unique in it's instrumentation. Blythe on alto saxophone, the great flute virtuoso, James Newton, James 'Blood' Ulmer on guitar, Bob Stewart on tuba, Cecil McBee on bass, Jack DeJohnette on drums and Guilherme Franco on percussion. Only four tunes comprise the album, all by Arthur Blythe. "Lenox Avenue Breakdown" stands as a modern classic and a great tribute to the originality of Arthur Blythe.
