The jazz standard "All The Things You Are" has been performed countless times by master jazz vocalists, 30s big bands, bebop small groups, hard-bop combos, modern deconstructionists, and even soon-to-be Kings of Pop. On this episode, Kirk takes listeners through the history of the now-famous tune, from its humble Broadway origins all the way to his recording studio in Portland, where he and some friends recorded an all-new arrangement just for Strong Songs.Music/Lyrics: Jerome Kern & Oscar Hammerstein IIVersions Featured:Broadway Original Cast Recording of "Very Warm for May," - 1939Tommy Dorsey and His Orchestra, feat.

Welcome to our new series, “The Beat Goes On,” where we will celebrate the work and enduring influence of Jack Kerouac, Allen Ginsberg, William Burroughs, and the other writers whom we identify as “The Beats.” - that crop of artists who worked to expand our consciousness, exploring the hidden possibilities of post WW2 America in the 1950s - Other significant names to be explored: Diane Di Prima, Tuli Kupferberg, Ed Sanders, Delmore Schwarz, Anne Waldman, Carolyn Cassidy, and many others.We will also include jazz musicians like Miles Davis, John Coltrane and Dizzy Gillespie, whose sinuous Bebop lines influenced the expansive prose of Kerouac and poetry of Ginsberg, and comedians like Lenny Bruce, Lord Buckley, Brother Theodore and Dick Gregory with their scathing critique and unmasking of our nation's hypocrisy beneath the self-deceptive rhetoric of American exceptionalism.  And, then there are their artistic children like Hunter S. Thompson, Charles Bukowski, Tom Waits and Lou Reed…. The list goes on.First off: we need to define that confusing term “beat”… Once the satirists were able to pin them down, the Beats and their devotees were labelled “Beatniks” (a cold war epithet) and put into a farcical box. This is where I, as a child, first became aware of them through the character of Maynard G. Krebs on the Dobie Gillis show. The child-like, pre-hippie with the dirty sweatshirt and goatee, indelibly played by Bob Denver, later of Gilligan fame. He was a gentle figure of fun, not to be taken seriously. But, the truth goes so much deeper. Kerouac defined Beat as short for “beatitude” - a state of grace, a codex for the maturing “peace and love” Baby Boom generation coming up - those in search of existence's deeper meaning beyond the consumerist and war-like American culture being offered as our only option.Well, boy, do we need them now! HENRY MILLER INTERVIEWOur inaugural offering is a 1964 interview with the writer Henry Miller, of TROPIC OF CANCER, TROPIC OF CAPRICORN, and THE ROSY CRUCIFIXION TRILOGY fame, among many others. This is an insightful, in depth look at a artist of gargantuan influence. Miller was interviewed by Audrey June Wood  in Minneapolis during a speaking tour; he considered this interview to be one of his best. Miller discourses on some of his favorite books and authors and the struggle of writing well. It was released on Smithsonian/ Folkways Records.Strictly speaking, Miller was not a Beat - he preceded them, and out lived many of them, making it to 88 in 1980, but he was their spiritual and artistic pathfinder.Living hand to mouth, on the edge, abroad in Paris, writing free form in a raw, explicit, semi-autobiographical manner, telling the truth about sex, love, art, and struggle - he set the artistic compass for the Beats - as Dostoevsky and Walt Whitman had done before him. They are all part of a chain - a chain of searchers, and we are fortunate to have these lights to guide us on our own personal journeys to self realization. Please enjoy…THE BEAT GOES ON.

STANDARS SEMANAL.-771.Gee,Baby,Ain´t I Good to You.-VINILOS MITICOS DEL JAZZ.-JOHN COLTRANE - Blue Train.-JAZZACTUALIDAD.-.ANA PEREIRA-BAILA LA LLUVIA Blue Train es un álbum de estudio delsaxofonista y compositor de jazz John Coltrane . Fue lanzado a través de Blue Note Records en enero de 1958. [ 1 ] Es la única sesión de Coltrane como líder para Blue Note. [ 8 ] La grabación tuvo lugar en el estudio de Rudy Van Gelder el 15 de septiembre de 1957. Coltrane compuso cuatro de los cinco temas del disco. Su interpretación exhibe elementos tempranos del estilo característico por el que posteriormente se hizo conocido. Blue Train obtuvo la certificación de oro en ventas de la Asociación de la Industria Discográfica de Estados Unidos (RIAA) en 2001.El álbum se grabó durante la residencia de Coltrane en el Five Spot como miembro del cuarteto Thelonious Monk . El equipo incluye a los compañeros de banda de Coltrane en Miles Davis , Paul Chambers al bajo y Philly Joe Jones a la batería, quienes ya habían trabajado con el pianista Kenny Drew . Tanto el trompetista Lee Morgan como el trombonista Curtis Fuller eran músicos de jazz prometedores, y ambos fueron miembros de Jazz Messengers de Art Blakey en su momento. A diferencia de su anterior sello, Blue Note pagó a los músicos para que ensayaran la música durante un par de días antes de la sesión de grabación. La forma de tocar de Coltrane muestra la evolución hacia lo que se convertiría en su estilo característico. Sus solos son más armónicos o verticales y sus líneas son arpegiadas. Su ritmo a menudo se desmarcaba del tiempo o lo superaba, en lugar de tocar sobre él o por detrás. [ 9 ] Durante una entrevista en 1960, Coltrane describió Blue Train como su álbum favorito hasta ese momento. [ 13 ] El siguiente gran álbum de John Coltrane, Giant Steps , grabado en 1959, abriría nuevos caminos melódicos y armónicos en el jazz, mientras que Blue Train se apega al estilo hard bop de la época. El musicólogo Lewis Porter también ha demostrado una relación armónica entre «Lazy Bird» de Coltrane y « Lady Bird » de Tadd Dameron . [ 14 ] [ 15 ] Mientras estaba en el podcast "Traneumentary" de Joe Vella, Michael Cuscuna , el productor de reediciones de Blue Note , comentó: Estamos escuchando "Blue Train", que para mí es una de las piezas más hermosas de uno de los discos más hermosos que Coltrane grabó en los cincuenta. Es su primera declaración de madurez real, y escribió todos los temas de este álbum menos uno, algo muy poco común en los cincuenta, y cada uno es una joya, en particular el tema principal, "Blue Train". Y aunque es bastante fácil tocar blues, este tiene una cualidad suspendida y evocadora. Ana Pereira presenta su primer trabajo discográfico "Baila la lluvia" (Sedajazz Records), una reinterpretación del bolero desde una perspectiva personal y contemporánea. Acompañada por Isaac Martín (bajo y dirección musical), Daniel Orts (piano) y Tico Porcar (batería), fusiona este género con el jazz y otras músicas, aportando una visión fresca y actual de un género que se convierte así en atemporal. Su voz delicada, elegante y expresiva, y los arreglos sofisticados interpretados por el genial trío que la acompaña, consiguen que el directo sea toda una experiencia íntima y envolvente que transporta al público a través del tiempo en una conexión pasado-presente con la música como compañera de viaje.

On this week's episode, we make the case for putting John Coltrane into next year's class of the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame as an early influencer.

STANDAR SEMANAL.-Watermelon Man-VINILOS MITICOS DEL JAZZ.-Gato Barbieri - Caliente!.-JAZZACTUALIDAD..YURI STORIONE-BRISA ANDALUZA “Caliente”, el álbum que recomendamos hoy aquí, refleja con toda la pasión posible, la manera de entender el jazz de este gran músico. La portada del disco ya indica la fuerza del mismo; Gato entre llamas grabando un disco caliente versionando la música de dos colosos de la música: Carlos Santana y Marvin Gaye. Entre los nueve temas del álbum, algunos han quedado para la posteridad como autenticas obras de arte jazzísticas destacando: “Fiesta”; “Detrás de la lluvia”, “Los Desperados” y “Europa” fundamentalmente. Música emocional, a contracorriente del momento histórico cuando se grabó; áspera y dulce al mismo tiempo; seductora y expresiva, latina y europea al mismo tiempo. Así fue Gato y así fue su música. Reproducimos a continuación una historia contada por el añorado y querido maestro Juan Claudio Cifuentes en su obra “El Gran Jazz” Volumen 5. (ediciones del Prado-1995) en relación con el primer encuentro físico entre John Coltrane y Gato Barbieri (Maestro y discípulo) en París. Escribía Cifu:…..”El descubrimiento de la música de John Coltrane a través de los discos tuvo efectos decisivos en la formación de un saxofonista argentino, Leandro “Gato” Barbieri. Poco antes de abandonar Argentina par instalarse en Europa – donde tocaría y grabaría con Don Cherry, convirtiéndose en uno de los abanderados del free jazz-, quiso enviar a Coltrane un regalo por medio de un amigo, para darle las gracias por todo lo que su música le había aportado. Se trataba de un soberbio estuche para saxo tenor, en cuero verde, totalmente hecho a mano, revestido de seda en su interior, con la palabra TRANE grabada en letras de oro sobre la cubierta, ofrecido por Gato y su esposa Michelle. El estuche fue entregado a Coltrane, pero sin conocer en absoluto la identidad del expedidor, pues Barbieri se había contentado con indicar: “De parte de un amigo de Buenos Aires”. Al año siguiente los Barbieri se instalaron en Roma. Cuando se enteraron de que Coltrane iba a tocar en Milán, fueron allí a escucharlo. Al acabar el concierto se acercaron al camerino para conocerle. Allí, en un rincón, vieron el estuche que le habían enviado. “¡Ah! así que sois argentinos”, exclamó Coltrane cuando fueron presentados. Y , señalando con el dedo el famoso estuche, dijo: “Precisamente es un argentino quien me ha hecho el regalo. Lo utilizo siempre”. Cuando Barbieri reveló que él era el argentino en cuestión, Trane le dio las gracias efusivamente. Después, con tanta seriedad como humor, añadió: “¿Crees que podrías enviarme otro para el soprano?”. Desvelando una armoniosa fusión de Flamenco y Jazz Estimados y distinguidos oyentes, bienvenidos a una experiencia musical sin igual que trasciende fronteras, géneros y expectativas. Dentro de los límites de mi última obra musical yace una fusión de Flamenco y Jazz: una simbiosis de dos mundos musicales distintos que convergen para crear algo verdaderamente extraordinario. Prepárense para ser cautivados, embelesados y transportados mientras los invitamos a un viaje a través de los ritmos dinámicos, las melodías conmovedoras y las actuaciones apasionadas que definen nuestro conjunto. Flamenco Jazz: donde la pasión encuentra la innovación Flamenco Jazz es una fusión dinámica de las melodías apasionadas del flamenco y el estilo improvisado del jazz. Este género reúne los ritmos emotivos de los instrumentos tradicionales del flamenco con las complejidades armónicas de los conjuntos de jazz, resultando en una experiencia musical cautivadora. En el Flamenco Jazz, los músicos exploran la interacción entre la expresión apasionada del flamenco y el espíritu improvisado del jazz. Este género trasciende fronteras, uniendo a audiencias de diversos orígenes con sus actuaciones electrizantes e improvisaciones espontáneas. Desde las composiciones innovadoras de Paco de Lucía hasta las exploraciones desafiantes de artistas contemporáneos, el Flamenco Jazz continúa evolucionando, inspirando a músicos y audiencias en todo el mundo. Experimenten la fusión de la pasión y la innovación en el Flamenco Jazz: una celebración del intercambio cultural y la expresión creativa que no conoce límites. Sobre nosotros Nuestra banda es un testimonio del poder de la colaboración, la creatividad y el intercambio cultural. Compuesto por músicos virtuosos procedentes de diversos ámbitos, nos hemos unido bajo una visión común: explorar la intersección del Flamenco y el Jazz, insuflando nueva vida a tradiciones centenarias y forjando conexiones que resuenen en todos los continentes. Con cada miembro aportando una perspectiva y habilidades únicas, nuestro conjunto encarna el espíritu de la innovación y la expresión artística. Agradecimientos Extendemos nuestro más profundo agradecimiento a todos aquellos que han contribuido a la realización de este proyecto: nuestros patrocinadores, colaboradores, seguidores y seres queridos. Su creencia inquebrantable en nuestra visión y su apoyo constante han alimentado nuestro viaje creativo e inspirado a superar los límites de la expresión artística.

(S4 Ep18) The Real McCoy (Blue Note) with guest Steve Myerson October 1967, Recorded April 21, 1967 The Real McCoy (1967) is a landmark album by jazz pianist McCoy Tyner, marking his first solo release after leaving John Coltrane's legendary quartet. With a stellar lineup featuring tenor saxophonist Joe Henderson, bassist Ron Carter, and drummer Elvin Jones, the album showcases Tyner's unique modal jazz style, blending African rhythmic influences and his signature wide interval voicings. The album's compositions, all written by Tyner wrote, demonstrate his incredible range as a pianist and composer, with tracks like "Passion Dance" and "Contemplation" now regarded as jazz standards. The interplay between the musicians is dynamic, with Henderson's fluid solos, Carter's solid bass work, and Jones's explosive drumming providing a perfect backdrop for Tyner's improvisations. The album balances uptempo tracks, like "Four by Five," with slower, more meditative pieces, such as "Search for Peace," highlighting Tyner's ability to navigate diverse moods and textures. The Real McCoy is widely praised for its deep emotional resonance and technical brilliance, solidifying McCoy Tyner as one of his generation's most influential jazz pianists.Signature Tracks: "Passion Dance", "Contemplation", "Four By Five" Full Album YouTube Spotify  Playlist     YouTube  Spotify

The iconic jazz trumpet player Freddie Hubbard was born in Indianapolis on April 7th of 1938. During his extraordinary career, Hubbard made enormous contributions to hard bop and fusion music, performing on landmark albums by John Coltrane, Herbie Hancock, Quincy Jones, Sonny Rollins, Wayne Shorter and many others. Hubbard also issued many classic recordings as a bandleader. Nine of those albums appeared on the Billboard charts and his 1972 LP First Light earned a Grammy award for "Best Jazz Performance by a Group". Hubbard's technical mastery of the trumpet earned widespread critical acclaim and drew comparisons to legendary musicians like Miles Davis. Freddie  Hubbard passed away in 2008 at the age of 70, but his impact on music endures. His influence extends beyond jazz, shaping hip-hop as well. His recordings have been sampled by some of rap's most respected artists, including A Tribe Called Quest, Raekwon, Common, J Dilla, and MF DOOM. In this episode, we'll celebrate Hubbard's birthday by exploring the use of his music in hip-hop.

Send us your thoughts! The French Impressionists revolutionized the art world by privileging the emotional and spiritual perception of the natural world over its literal reproduction. Hailing from France, harpist Isabelle Olivier has always felt an innate affinity for Impressionism and discovered its echoes within her other artistic passions, primarily the parallel worlds of jazz and classical music.On her vibrant new album, Impressions, Olivier conjures a bold musical landscape from the lush and stirring hues of her diverse influences. Inspired by tenor sax icon John Coltrane's revered composition “Impressions,” she explores the confluences of jazz and Impressionism with a painter's instinct for complementary colors, forms and textures. “I think about Impressionism as a combination between elegance, minimalism, spectral notions, feelings and vibes – things that you can feel but you cannot explain,” Olivier describes. “Looking at Impressionist art is like becoming part of nature, to the point where you forget that you're human. I love this feeling.”Out now in Europe and in the US/Canada on March 21, 2025 via Olivier's Rewound Echoes imprint, Impressions features a versatile and genre-fluid ensemble that includes the harpist's sons – pianist and accordionist Tom Olivier-Beuf and electronic musician Raphael Olivier – along with a string quartet (violinists Mathias Naon and Anne Le Pape, violist Cyprien Busolini and cellist Jean-Philippe Feiss) and drummer Baptiste Thiebault. In addition to Olivier's Impressionism-inspired compositions, the album is interspersed with a number of group improvisations that suggest or were suggested by impressionistic ideas – from the misty, crepuscular “Fog on the Lake” to the stark, pointillist “A Pizzicato Life.”With its many references to Chicago art and artists, Impressions brings together the two metropolises that Olivier calls home – the Windy City and the City of Lights, Chicago and Paris. The album bridges various landmarks for the harpist, including her roots in jazz and classical music, as well as her love for aural and visual art. These seemingly divergent poles have never been separate in her mind – she was introduced to her instrument in the first place by Duchess, the harp-playing cat in Walt Disney's jazz-inflected 1970 animated film The Aristocats. Not long after finishing her classical studies at the Conservatoire National Supérieur de Musique et de Danse in Lyon, she co-founded the jazz quartet Océan with the Moutin Brothers, well known figures on the French and American jazz scenes.Support the show

"Listening is everything. Without listening, there's no music, no art, no understanding—just noise.” (Charlie Peacock, from the episode) Acclaimed musician, producer, podcaster, and author Charlie Peacock joins Mark Labberton to reflect on music, art, attention, listening, faith, and spirituality. From his groundbreaking work in pop music production (e.g., Amy Grant, Switchfoot, the Civil Wars), to his deep engagement with faith and mentorship, Charlie explores how attention shapes creativity, why making space for beauty is a spiritual discipline, and how a life of music can be an act of service. Through stories of artistic risk, collaboration, and calling, this conversation explores the rhythms of a flourishing life. In this episode, they discuss: Charlie's new memoir, Roots and Rhythm: A Life In Music The communal nature of making and producing music The unsung music heroes from Charlie's life Non-neutrality and the interdependence of all things Hearing and visualizing music The intersection of creativity, spirituality, and paying attention, How listening transforms both art and relationships, Life lessons from jazz, pop, and worship music production, And the role of both sound and silence in artistic and spiritual life. About Charlie Peacock Charlie Peacock is a six-time Grammy Award–winning musician and producer, having produced Amy Grant, Switchfoot, the Civil Wars, and many more artists. A three-time recipient of the Gospel Music Association's Producer of the Year Award, he's named by Billboard's Encyclopedia of Record Producers as one of the five hundred most important producers in popular music history. His latest book is Roots and Rhythm: A Life In Music, and you can listen to his podcast, Music & Meaning. For more information visit charliepeacock.com. Episode Highlights "If you're not paying attention, you're missing the song that's already being sung around you." "A mentor doesn't hand you a map; they help you learn how to navigate." "Faith and art are both about trust—trusting the unseen, the unfinished, and the uncertain." "The hardest and best lesson for any artist: keep showing up and doing the work." "Music isn't just a product—it's a means of connection, healing, and worship."

And we will continue to live it.” “Playing with the entire history of music in your brain.” The Civil Wars: “We re-presented hyper-dynamics. … A lot of people have never heard that before. … It invites you in and lets you sit back.” (e.g., pianissimo to forte) Over-compressed music. “That lean in to the music is a part of your participation. … I'm committed to this music.” “I produced music in the ‘80s. I know how to ruin a record. … Big hair and big snare. … But really it had to do with technology.” Music in the late ‘70s and early ‘80s Neil Postman: “To a man with a hammer, everything looks like a nail.” “When I use this tool I have to make sure it doesn't use me.” “My subtext is that this is a book about epistemology. … To say, ‘This is how I know what I know.' It came through God, people, and place.” A worker-bee in the music business “Like a house with a party going on” Vocation, epistemology, and how an artists become who they are Production Credits Conversing is produced and distributed in partnership with Comment magazine and Fuller Seminary.

Michael is one of the first responders from the Chicago area who flew to New York City just days after the destruction of the World Trade Center. He helped the New York City Fire Department and Port Authority for many weeks. In 2024, Michael released his latest album called “Luminosity,” which follows up 2023's, “Impermanence,” “Transcendence” in 2022, and “Human Revolution” in 2021. All are original jazz and world music compositions which received approval for voting from the National Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences for Grammy Award consideration.Michael's musical influences come from James Newton, Ian Anderson, Miles Davis, John Coltrane, Eric Dolphy, Sun Ra, Yusef Lateef, and James Galway.I've listened multiple times to each of his excellent records and can tell you Michael's impressive work will instantly soothe your soul with warm, beautiful melodies, gorgeous arrangements, and Michael's brilliance on the flute.  I highly recommend you check out his wonderful recordings and music.Michael's currently in the studio mixing 8 new songs for release in 2025 on the AVG Records label, so be sure to look out for that.Michael's been gracious enough to lend us his radiant composition, Moments from Luminosity. Please be sure to stick around at the end of the show to give it a listen. 

When he isn't touring the country as a member of the free jazz collective ‘The Music Quintet' Coleman Rose makes time as a performer and composer in the Sonny Rollins Ensemble at Oberlin College. Well equipped to live and work in both free and traditional jazz, Coleman showcases the latter here in this sextet featuring works by Wayne Shorter, Cannonball Adderley and John Coltrane. Featuring Coleman Rose on Tenor Sax, Chris Coles on Alto Sax, Mitchell Galligan on Hammond B3, Tommy Lehman on Trumpet, Tim Picard on Guitar, and Ori Jossell on drums, and from a sold out performance from March 29th, 2024, it's the Coleman Rose Sextet – Live at the Bop Stop.

 Producing a historical recording requires enormous patience, investigative powers like an investigative journalist. The journey is long, emotional, and exciting when the recordings are discovered, and the final package completed. This is what Zev Feldman does. He is the producer for and co-president of Resonance Records, a record label that releases archival recordings that are previously unissued. The Resonance catalogue includes John Coltrane, Bill Evans, Wes Montgomery, Freddie Hubbard, among many other legendary musicians. In this episode, Zev Feldman and I discuss his insights into his multifaceted career, how he got started in the music industry and his subsequent journey through various roles in sales, marketing, and ultimately producing rare jazz recordings. Feldman works with numerous other labels including Blue Note, Verve Label Group, Elemental Music as well as own his own labels, Jazz Detective and Deep Digs. Feldman spins many stories about his adventures in discovering music long forgotten. It's music that is not just good; it must be GREAT! Curating legacy music requires a sense of understanding about the elements of a dynamic recording, one that exceeds others in the quality of the performance, the importance of a certain date, and the historical aspect of the show or studio recording. Then there is the emotional involvement with the families of these jazz legends, many of whom become close friends, such as it has with the families of jazz guitar legend Wes Montgomery (Zev produced the first archival recording of Wes Montgomery for Resonance) and piano virtuoso Bill Evans as Feldman is just releasing his 13th archival recordings of Bill Evans. Then there is the importance of Record Store Day on April 12. Feldman highlights the significance of this little-known observed day in bringing these projects to life. This episode is rich with music, thanks to Zev Feldman and Resonance Records. There is more than 36 minutes of full tracks of music along with clips of recordings discussed. The playlist includes: Freddie Hubbard-On Fire, “True Colors-Breaking Point Closer” (13:32); Freddie Hubbard-trumpet, Bennie Maupin-tenor saxophone, Kenny Barron-piano, Herbie Lewis-bass, Freddie Waits-drums. Charles Mingus-Mingus in Argentina-The Buenos Aires Concerts, “Duke Ellington's Sound of Love” (9:32), Charles Mingus-bass, Ricky Ford tenor saxophone, Jack Walrath-trumpet, Robert Neloms -piano, and Dannie Richmond-drums. Kenny Dorham-Blue Bossa in the Bronx: Live from the Blue Morocco, “Blue Bossa”, (13:31), Kenny Dorham-trumpet, Sonny Red-alto sax, Cedar Walton-piano, Paul Chambers-bass and Denis Charles-drums. Short music clips: Charles Mingus-"Pork Pie Hat", Freddie Hubbard-"Crisis", Kenny Dorham-Blue Friday, Bill Evans-"Ro(u)nd Midnight". Thank you for listening to this podcast.

John Harris is an old pal from our days in the music press. You might remember him from Sounds, the NME and Select (which he edited) and he's been one of the mainstays of the Guardian ever since, writing mostly about pop culture and politics. When his son James was diagnosed with autism and, looking for ways to connect with him and help his development, John began playing him various types of music. The results were life-changing for the family and recorded in his moving and revelatory book ‘Maybe I'm Amazed - A Story Of Love And Connection In 10 Songs'. With autism, John points out, “you can see the trees but seeing the wood is harder”. This fascinating conversation involves … … have we misread the eccentricities of John Coltrane or Van Morrison, Prince, David Byrne and Gary Numan? … how many musicians are outsiders in an industry requiring them to be the opposite of what they feel capable of. … how people with autism hear songs differently each time and “music is an endlessly replenishable source of wonder”. … why so many lead guitarists are loners. .. how James has perfect pitch and hears everything – birdsong, lawn-mowers, police sirens – as notes. And how music taught him to sight-read. … vivid, unforgettable, emotional recollections of the moment you first heard records – in John's case Sir Duke, Baker Street, Strange Town. … “blokes in black denim jackets drinking Becks”: the allure of working for the West End rock press. … “all records are novelty records when you're young”. … how 50-year-olds marvel at Spotify and 20-year-olds at vinyl. … the artistic rise and fall of Britpop. Order John's highly recommended book ‘Maybe I'm Amazed' here: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Maybe-Im-Amazed-Story-Connection-ebook/dp/B0D6B7H5NYFind out more about how to help us to keep the conversation going: https://www.patreon.com/wordinyourear Get bonus content on Patreon Hosted on Acast.

Our guest today is writer  Ralph Dartford who works for the National Literacy Trust and is the poetry editor of literary journal Northern Gravy.   Ralph kindly made the journey from Bradford to the Lockwood residence in Sheffield, and we settled down in my living room with mugs of tea and a plate of biscuits, surrounded by books and looked down upon by at least three pictures of Larkin. Ralph also co-organises the fantastic Louder Than Words festival that takes place in Manchester every autumn, and is a celebration of writing about music. They gather together amazing writers, broadcasters and musicians to discuss, explore and debate all things music and music industry related.  I hope we will continue to see Ralph at more PLS events.Larkin poems mentioned:The Whitsun Weddings, Dockery and Son, Mr Bleaney, For Sidney Bechet, High Windows, Cut Grass, To The Sea, MCMXIV, Here, BroadcastAll What Jazz: A Record Diary 1961-1971 (1985) by Philip LarkinThe Oxford Book of Twentieth Century English Verse - ed.  Philip Larkin (1973) I am happy to see Mr. Larkin's taste in poetry and my own are in agreement ...

Have Giant Steps and Meditations scared you away from John Coltrane? Join us on the other side of the Trane tracks with what might be the best trio of albums ever dropped in the same year. We're talking 1963 Coltrane—at his most accessible (dare we say smooth?) yet still cutting straight to the truth. From the GRAMMY hall-of-famer Ballads to his legendary Impulse! sessions with Duke Ellington and Johnny Hartman, enter the perfect gateway into Coltrane's world. We break down his honest melodies, the masterful support from McCoy Tyner, Elvin Jones, Jimmy Garrison (and more), and quibble with certain Rudy Van Gelder… choices… Whether you're Coltrane-curious or already converted, this episode has something special for your ears.Link to Spotify playlistTry OS Membership today! → https://osjazz.link/aboutLooking to drop a question?

Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for January 9, 2025 is: excursion • ik-SKER-zhun • noun Excursion refers to a trip, and especially to a short one made for pleasure. Excursion is also often used figuratively to refer to a deviation from a direct, definite, or proper course, and often in particular to a digression. // Some of Maya's most cherished childhood memories are of fishing excursions with her grandpa. // Lewis Carroll's Through The Looking Glass is an excursion into a fantastical world where nothing is what it seems to be, and everything appears to be what it is not. See the entry > Examples: “… in the late sixties, he [Miles Davis] abandoned acoustic jazz altogether, moving to the easy/uneasy blend of jazz and rock that would cause consternation among jazz purists and come to be known as fusion. Then, in 1975, plagued by profuse health problems and addictions, he left music altogether, not to return until 1981. Audiences and record buyers welcomed his comeback, though jazz's zealous gatekeepers continued to fret about his stylistic excursions and commercial aspirations.” — James Kaplan, 3 Shades of Blue: Miles Davis, John Coltrane, Bill Evans, and the Lost Empire of Cool, 2024 Did you know? A Tribe Called Quest's 1991 album The Low End Theory is not only widely regarded as one of the greatest hip-hop albums of all time, but one of the genre's most successful early excursions into jazz, utilizing samples and even featuring legendary bassist Ron Carter on one song. Excursion refers to a usually brief, pleasurable trip, and is often used figuratively—as in the previous sentence—for metaphorical trips outside of one's usual territory, be they artistic or otherwise. The word comes from the Latin verb excurrere (“to run out” or “to extend”), which combines the prefix ex- meaning “out of” and the verb currere meaning “to run.” Although it is sometimes used to refer to attacks or raids made against an enemy, as in “military excursions,” excursion is mostly used today for much more enjoyable jaunts, junkets, and rambles. Accordingly, on your next excursion, whether to the park, beach, or elsewhere, you could do worse than to queue up The Low End Theory on your playlist. The album's first track, after all, is titled “Excursions.”

In light of Janis Stockhouse's unexpected death at the tail end of 2024, we're re-posting Kirk's 2019 interview with her for anyone who might want to listen to it.Janis started teaching at North high school in Bloomington, Indiana, in the early 1980s. It was a time when "jazz education" as a concept was still a relatively new thing. She retired 38 years later, having grown the North band program into a well-known Midwest institution, winning countless awards at festivals around the world and regularly turning out graduates who would go on to become professional musicians, as well as many others who would simply have a lifelong love of music.On this episode she tells the story of starting out at North and developing the program, along with her thoughts on how to get students to practice, which composers she prefers for student groups, women in jazz, funding for the arts, and some good old-fashioned album recommendations.REFERENCED ON THIS EPISODE:Janis's 2004 book Jazzwomen: Conversations With Twenty-One Musicians, which she co-wrote with Wayne Enstice - there are used copies on Amazon, and you should really track down a copy and read itThe late great jazz legend David Baker, whose NYT obituary captured at least some of his legacy: https://www.nytimes.com/2016/03/30/arts/music/david-baker-who-helped-bring-jazz-studies-into-the-academy-dies-at-84.htmlMUSIC ON THIS EPISODE:"IU Swing Machine" by David Baker as played by the 2016 IU Celebration Big Band"Don't Get Sassy" by the Thad Jones/Mel Lewis big band"Hang Gliding" by Maria Schneider from Alegresse"Bright Eyes" as played by the Bill Holman big band"Take the 'A' Train" by Billy Strayhorn as performed by the Duke Ellington orchestra"Vol. 6: All 'Bird' - Now's The Time" Play-A-Long by Jamey Aebersold (featuring Kenny Barron and Ron Carter(!!))"Laugh, Clown, Laugh" by Abbey Lincoln from Abbey Is Blue, 1959"Song Patrol" by Jane Ira Bloom from Early Americans, 2016"Lingala" by the SF Jazz Collective from their 2005 self-titled album"So What" and "Flamenco Sketches" by Miles Davis from Kind of Blue, 1959"My Favorite Things" as performed by John Coltrane on My Favorite Things, 1966"Mercy Mercy Mercy" by Josef Zawinul as performed by the Cannonball Adderley quintet on Mercy, Mercy, Mercy, 1966OUTRO SOLOIST: BJ CORDThis episode's outro soloist is BJ Cord, a fellow Bloomington North graduate and fantastic trumpet player based in Portland.
