[johnlitweiler]

On Monday, March 15 the wonderful tenor saxophonist Fred Anderson returns to Zoundz! as part of his 81st birthday celebration. Along with Fred's own words we'll hear recordings by him and by his fellow March-birthday artists Cecil Taylor and Ornette Coleman too. This Zoundz! will introduce the Velvet Lounge's Fred Anderson birthday festival, which begins this week and promises to present Fred himself playing on at least three nights, maybe more. Richard Davis and Amiri Baraka will join the Chicago artists including Ed Wilkerson, Jeff Chan, Ernest Dawkins, Dee Alexander, Willie Pickens, Hamid Drake, & c., & c. Whee!

You can hear Zoundz!, the most dangerous jazz show in Chicago, on WHPK 88.5 FM (on the South Side) and on www.whpk.org (around the world). Zoundz! wails from 6:30 to 9 pm Central daylight savings time.
