ghost of miles Posted July 2, 2011 Report Posted July 2, 2011 (edited) This week's Night Lights program, an indirect jazz celebration of the 4th of July, is up for online listening:Freedom Jazz! A couple of the featured recordings are included as well in the post/playlist I did for this week's NPR Take Five column:Five Platters For Your 4th Of July Picnic Special note of thanks to Chuck Nessa, who turned me on to the Ellington recording of "Rhapsody in Blue" years ago.

Enterprise Server Posted July 10, 2011 Report Posted July 10, 2011 Nice program. It's refreshing to hear serious creative music being aired in this current debacle of media hyped trash music. Good work...... Quote
ghost of miles Posted July 11, 2011 Author Report Posted July 11, 2011 Thanks much, ES--it's really good to hear that. Do you listen to fellow board member Lazaro Vega on Blue Lake Public Radio? Some of the best jazz programming in the country, in my not-so-humble opinion. (Full disclosure: they also carry Night Lights. ) Quote
ghost of miles Posted July 3, 2014 Author Report Posted July 3, 2014 "Hey man, is that Freedom Jazz?" "Yeah man!" "Well turn it up, man!" Up for rebroadcast this 4th of July weekend: http://indianapublicmedia.org/nightlights/freedom-jazz/ Quote
