In the Groove, Jazz and Beyond Folgen

We begin with a trio led by pianist George Colligan along with Linda Oh (b) and Jack DeJohnette (dr). Mr. DeJohnette passed away last week and was an important figure in modern jazz. Also, new music by guitarist Mike Stern and a live recording of Weather Reports famous tune Birdland.

Mostly jazz/rock fusion on this week's show, featuring some of my favorite bands from the 70's and beyond. This music sparked my interest in jazz music during my college years, and eventually branching out into more traditional forms. But this is the music that started it all for me and many others of my generation.
