Music in 2002 - The Lounge at KPBS with Dirk Sutro
Need to put together some notes, so here goes. Live from the offices of Jazz 88, KSDS San Diego.
Local
Daniel Jackson. Son Jason?
Stephen O'Connor. The Interview. Great interview. Nice guy. The (lost) opportunity to record / post it.
Jazz Artists Guild. The Singing.
George Lewis, Genius. And a downloadable MP3 of the whole interview, to boot.
Spruce Street. Troupe Gallery. Quincy Troupe. Fallout.
Thumb - Whisper Chipper - Trummerflora. Expanding show.
George Varga class - Jazz In A Post Ken Burns World. Excellent and need more.
Doug Randall Memorial. The Weblog. Tunes needed for listening.
Issues
CARP - DMCA: For Webcasters, CARP Was The News. George on commercial radio and jazz 12/19 Night & Day.
Indie Jazz Labels In Internet Distribution System. Nice title. H
Jazz-wide
Brad Mehldau - Largo - Wave / Mother Nature's Son: Favorite tune of the year, great back-beat. Intro with synth figure foreshadowing Mother Natures Son. Great melodies both. Guitar. Will be interesting to see next album.
Dave Holland Big Band - What Comes Around - Triple Dance: Always looking for new directions, this time with Big Band.
Leni Stern - Finally The Rain Has Come - By The Stars: Vocalist, Guitarist, Composer, Lyricist. Different instrumentations. Lyrics trying to put life today in perspective. Reaction to 9/11.
Vocals - Norah Jones, Nnenna Frelon (fun interview), Karyn Allyson (woa interview). Diana Krall (doll-like victum of the "the deplorable jazz babe syndrome", ala Mr. Varga, but still nice picture in paper).
Playboy Jazz Festival. The Weblog. The Mansion. The quickly-healed dissapointment. The ache in my belly. The grotto heads.
