"How many holes you got in your head?"



I'm quoting the late, great, guitarist/banjoist, writer/historian, storyteller and great wit – Daniel Moses Barker. (13 January 1909–13 March 1994) If you are not hip to Danny Barker then it is my great honor and pleasure to place him in your consciousness. Indeed, my storytelling style, and motivation, is very much influenced by this man and his legacy. I never met him, but when Danny entered my consciousness just over ten years ago, as New… Continue

October 27th, 2008

It's “Happy Monday” in New Orleans. “I survived” is a rather significant summation for a Sunday. Maybe not just any Sunday, since not just on any Sunday does a 152 year old Roman Catholic Church hold its last Mass service. The Archdiocese of New Orleans is deafly going forward with a plan to close and/or merge 33 churches in its jurisdiction – some of which are viable and, on higher ground. I'm speaking, that is, about the naturally elevated sliver along the Mississippi. I suppose that I'm… Continue

Can You Help?

We need a President who believes the economy should work for everyone, not just the few. We need a President who believes everyone should have access to affordable healthcare. We need a president who believes we should end the war in Iraq.



We need a President with good judgment and integrity, who appeals to what unites us. That' why I'm supporting Barack Obama for President.



We're just a few days from Election Day, and all the campaign's efforts are devoted to getting… Continue

October 25th, 2008

I am fascinated by my life. I need to be. Fascination is my manner of broadening the simple and direct concept that has been a part of the lexicon of Blues People for a long time. “Laughing just to keep from crying.” I am fascinated by synchronicities, numbers, and patterns. I've always looked for the nuances of consciousness, at least the consciousness that I know of. I'm big on context. One of my tags during my time on WWOZ radio: “I do radio for people who are paying attention.” Indeed,… Continue

To be, or not to be... Data is the question. Sure, I would reinvent myself as an Shakespearian actor. It took me a while, but I got hip to this cat. Thank you, Bill. (Cohen, that is...) and King's County Shakespeare Co. The artist(s?) known as William Shakespeare left behind such hip and potent words for a man to really flex all of his language muscles by.

I voted today. I lent my voice, in this constitutional republic known as America to the cause of future peace and understanding among the peoples of the world. I counted my opinion as part of many who desire to live their lives free from tyranny and oppression. I cast my perspective upon a society where I see the possibility of unity and diversity, cooperation and tolerance. That's a lot of hope to pin on a political campaign, even this one. Nevertheless... What can I say? I've always been a… Continue

The Jazz Network is exactly what the title suggests, a place where you get to mix and mingle with those who have not only an appreciation for Jazz but a forum to hear new up and coming artists as well. I've hooked up with so many of my old friends that I've lost contact with over the years here and it's been a great place to meet folk, appreciate good music and Musicianship. What an incredible idea!!

Rudresh Mahanthappa On Piano Jazz

Mahanthappa brings an explosive blend of jazz and South Indian classical music to the studio.

Grady Tate On Piano Jazz

Grady Tate began his jazz career as a much-celebrated drummer, backing such icons as Wes Montgomery, Ella Fitzgerald, and Quincy Jones. Tate has since traded in his skins for a microphone at center stage, where he delivers smooth and soulful baritone vocals. With pianist John di Martino, Tate sings "Everybody Loves My Baby" and "Where Do You Start."

Woody Herman At 100: 'A Blues Player From His Heart'

He was a soulful reedman, an amazing talent scout for decades and a bandleader of one of the country's most popular acts. Born in 1913, Herman led "Thundering Herds" that were both big draws and well-respected by the likes of Igor Stravinsky. Here are five recordings which still sound fresh today.

Edmar Castañeda And Friends On JazzSet

Hear passionate improvisation across borders on Colombian harp, Argentinian bandoneón, Venezuelan cuatro and vibes from the U.S. In a set with Castañeda, his trio and special guests perform at the Americas Society in New York.

Miguel Zenón Quartet: Live At The Village Vanguard

Ever since he started becoming one of the best alto saxophone players in the world, Zenón has drawn from his upbringing in Puerto Rico. But, like many Puerto Ricans, Zenón lives in New York — where his quartet of 10 years has finally been invited to play the Vanguard. It presents new music in concert.
