Chuck said to the band, "You guys again." We're fortunate that this group is business as usual, so to speak. To have a regular night of music be at this level. It's a gift to be able to hear a band developing their improvised music live over the course of four years. And then there are the records: Gebhard Ullmann's 50th birthday present to himself, the 2007 album by Basement Research on Soul Note, and Swell's Slammin' the Infinite live at The Vision Festival will be getting on the air soon, this week. We may rebroadcast the 4tet's live performance this Wednesday evening at Midnight, "Out On Blue Lake."

Thanks for making this the most listened to on-line programming broadcast all day. Swell and the gang at the Chicago Cultural Center this week.

Michael, Does your drummer pronounce his name "Sa-doe-nick"?

Waddada Leo Smith revisits the Miles bag, some, on "Rosa Parks" from his new album with the Golden Quartet (Vijay Iyer, Shannon Jackson included).

Up for Sunday night.

I'm jealous!

Ah, I did mention that the bassist on that record, Rodney Whitaker, organizes the jazz program at Michigan State University. Going to the Mother's Day concert by Reed and Chestnut, and then hanging around to go see the Police later that night.

Eric Reed doing "Ornate" from his album "Here" on MaxJazz is the one I think you're refering to. We're all ginned up for the Irving S. Gilmore International Keyboard Festival. Reed and Cyrus Chestnut are playing together in Grand Rapids on Mother's Day. Mulgrew Miller in Kalamazoo, Dick Hyman "The Man At Odds With Himself" is playing noon time concerts in smaller venues, all kinds of stuff. Kurt Elling is back. See http://www.thegilmoreiscoming.com

That's because it is new on ESP -- Volume 2 of the Montmartre tapes that they've issued. And I'm glad you where there to dig it last night, today.

How'd we do?

No more encores!

Nessa!!! Yes, that's us. Hey everyone thank you for the good wishes and the GREAT photo manipulation because today, April 30th, is my birthday. Have that all set, again, in my profile. So because this is my birthday, and because I'm celebrating my 25th anniversary on the air, I'm happy to announce we'll have Arno Marsh's quartet playing at our house this July. 'z gonna be a good 1 !
