  1. Bobby Bradford switched permanently from trumpet to cornet in 1973, using the horn for great timbre flexibility and expressiveness in deftly organized spontaneous composition, something he’s excelled at since first coming out of Texas as a boyhood friend of the great Ornette Coleman. Blue Lake Public Radio’s celebration of Bobby Bradford’s 83 birthday is available to hear today under “Programs” and “Jazz From Blue Lake” here: www.bluelake.org/ondemand
  2. Bob Blumenthal typified Milt Jackson’s July 2, 1948 quartet recording session with Thelonious Monk as easily his most important outside of the Modern Jazz Quartet, and one which produced music of the highest level, some of the most celebrated in Monk’s career. Combine those recordings with the July 23, 1951 session led by Monk featuring Jackson on “Four in One” and “Criss Cross” and you’ll be listening to last night’s Jazz From Blue Lake, here: www.bluelake.org/ondemand .
  3. Geri Allen. You've read the tributes flowing out of Michigan's jazz scene about her, and the jazz world's incredible appreciation of this dynamic creative artist. Tonight on Jazz From Blue Lake at midnight eastern time we'll rebroadcast a 2008 solo piano performance she gave live on the radio from the Blodgett Recital Hall at Blue Lake Fine Arts Camp. Streaming from www.bluelake.org/listen . Geri went to Blue Lake Fine Arts Camp as a 6th grader (the camp is for high school students).
  4. It was a year ago that Sir Charles Thompson passed away. Last night we remembered his clear, concise piano playing and lovely melodies during part of Jazz From Blue Lake, which you'll find on line today to stream from www.bluelake.org/ondemand .
  5. Jazz From Blue Lake featuring the music of Miles Davis in the first part of each hour is available right now from www.bluelake.org/ondemand.
  6. Jazz From Blue Lake is available from www.bluelake.org/ondemand. In the first hour of the program we hear music by Cecil Taylor’s bands featuring saxophonist Archie Shepp, The Jazz Datebook, and music by Thelonious Monk from 1959, including some of the newly recovered film soundtrack. The other four hours of the program feature Shepp in the first 20 minutes, with “Out On Blue Lake” in the 3rd hour. Get into some massive sound via an avant gardist who joined the mainstream, whose depth of interpretation in blues and spirituals will fill you up.
  7. Jazz From Blue Lake celebrated the music of Sun Ra, jazz’s sun god, yesterday evening and the program is available today on demand from www.bluelake.org/ondemand . As his biographer John Swed said, Sun Ra believed music has a power that is closest you can come to certain God-like experiences. Music is a model for a kind of reality that’s not otherwise available directly to the mind. The broadcast includes part of a special live performance by the Blue Lake studios from saxophonist Marshall Allen and bassist Henry Grimes. (Image by Jan Persson, thanks to Stephen Haynes )
  8. Two weeks after recording Miles Davis's album "Kind of Blue," on May 4, 1959, John Coltrane recorded his classic album "Giant Steps" which Blue Lake Public Radio featured Friday evening in the first part of each hour of Jazz From Blue Lake. You can hear that broadcast of Jazz From Blue Lake here: www.bluelake.org/ondemand

  12. Jazz From Blue Lake celebrated the short life of tenor saxophonist Herschal Evans last night, the original “Texas Tenorman” who played a key role in the Count Basie Orchestra of the 1930’s, the “old testament” band. Evans big Coleman Hawkins-inspired sound was as a foil to the melodic rhythms of tenor saxophonist Lester Young. Hear for yourself, on-line right now under “Jazz From Blue Lake,” here: www.bluelake.org/ondemand

  14. 1979? First assignment for The State News (MSU): interview Ralph Towner and write a concert advance from the conversation. When I told Towner it was my first time speaking to any musician for the record, he graciously jumped in and pulled me along. The story he told about hitching a ride on a steamer ship to Europe to study classical guitar in Vienna with Karl Scheit isn’t repeated. The steamer ship part, anyway. Towner wrote a piece for The Paul Winter Consort called “Juniper Bear,” which a group of Grand Rapids musicians – Ric Troll, Marc Larson and Kevin O’Connell – took as their band name, promoting improvisational music throughout Grand Rapids in the 1970’s. Seeds are sown. Tonight, to celebrate my 34 anniversary broadcasting “Jazz From Blue Lake,” we’ll hear the music of Ralph Towner (on his 77th birthday) and give you good reason not to dread insomnia. 10 p.m. – 3 a.m. eastern via www.bluelake.org/radio
  15. Jazz From Blue Lake featured small band swing by Lester Young, Coleman Hawkins, Roy Eldridge, Earl "Fatha" Hines and bebop by Red Rodney, among others, last night as we focused on the majestic Keynote Jazz records produced by Harry Lim between 1943-46. For 5 hours of the finest in recorded jazz, see "Jazz From Blue Lake" under "Programs" here: www.bluelake.org/ondemand
  16. Dave Douglas's Quintet is playing in Ann Arbor this Thursday, Hope College in Holland, MI, this Friday, and Constellation in Chicago on Saturday. Had an enlightening conversation with trumpeter Dave Douglas yesterday: first about his quintet, then about trumpet. You can hear it under "Interviews" at www.bluelake.org/ondemand
  17. Bobby Hackett is world famous as the trumpeter on Glenn Miller's "String of Pearls" from 1941, and then a series of mood music recordings produced and conducted by actor and jazz fan Jackie Gleason. The popularity allowed him to record under his own name for Capitol Records. Last night Jazz From Blue Lake featured Hackett's music in the first part of each hour. "Jazz From Blue Lake" is found here www.bluelake.org/ondemand under "Programs."
  18. Blue Lake Public Radio celebrated the music of Joshua Redman last evening from 10 p.m. to 3 a.m. If you happened to have fallen asleep and missed the broadcast, his music is heard in the beginning of each hour of Jazz From Blue Lake found under "Programs" here: www.bluelake.org/ondemand

  20. Starting this week on "Jazz From Blue Lake" with 1930's era drummers (Big Sid Catlett tonight; Jo Jones on Wednesday) during the Jazz Retrospective part of the program. Here's last night's broadcast featuring Gene Krupa, who studied the great early jazz drummers as well as African music and put those ideas over with great showmanship, especially on "Sing, Sing, Sing" with Benny Goodman at Carnegie Hall (1-16-38). www.bluelake.org/ondemand
  21. Many of us in west Michigan are iced out of work or school today. May we suggested checking out Jazz From Blue Lake featuring jazz vibraphonist/bandleader Terry Gibbs, 92 years young and still a swing machine. We hear him with his son, drummer Gerry Gibbs, as well as long time compatriot, clarinetist Bubby DeFranco, and Gibbs 1959 “Dream Band” (pictured) in the first part of each hour of Jazz From Blue Lake found under “programs” here: www.bluelake.org/ondemand
