Andrew Hill on WHRB


Recommended Posts

I've forgot to mention this earlier, but my radio station is playing most of Andrew Hill's recordings (as a leader and a sideman) this week. The show will be on mostly in the mornings (5am--1pm ET). You can listen at http://www.whrb.org and check out the program guide at http://www.whrb.org/pg/MayJun2004.html . Also on tap this month is a big Mingus program, among others.

On Now: Divine Revelation

Thanks for the tip!! I'm listening now.

Hope you're gonna play "Blue Black" and/or "Nefertiti" and/or "From California with Love" -- none of which I've ever heard before.

Again, thanks for the tip!!

I can't believe that you have never heard these? I just listened to Nefertiti yesterday. It is one of the first Andrew Hill LPs I heard when I was still in college. The public library in Ithaca, NY had a copy, which I borrowed took to the music library and recorded onto cassette. A couple of years later I found it on LP and then last year I was able to get the CD reissue as well as the other East Wind recordings. I had forgotten how much I enjoyed this gem with Richard Davis and Roger Blank. You better get it.

I don't know Tom. I might have to convene a secret meeting of the board of Hillaholics anonymous to make sure you still meet the membership criteria. :D

On another note, sadly I can't get the stream here at work and when I tried to get it from home this morning I had problems. Hopefully I can get it working at home in time for the 24 hour blast starting Friday night.

Sadly, I do not think we managed to get the East Wind LPs. The rest of those '70s albums are great though.

I think I do remember seeing "From California with Love" in the bin. My guess is that it will be played right when the program starts again on Friday at midnight ET.
