Even among his collaborators who were known for going their own way-- Cecil Taylor, Sun Ra and Archie Shepp, to name but a few-- trumpeter Bill Dixon was an iconoclast. When the music was dismissed as being chaotic and structureless, Dixon was an aggressive organizer and conceptualist. Was this a whole new way of arranging sound to convey ideas?
Graham Haynes worked with Bill Dixon late in Dixon's life and shares insights with host Mitch Goldman about the man and his music. The WKCR archives reveal recordings that even many of his greatest fans have not heard.
Monday night Sept. 5 from 6pm to 9pm NYC time on WKCR 89.9FM, WKCR HD-1 and wkcr.org. The following Monday the show goes up on the Deep Focus podcast, available on your favorite podcasting app or at https://mitchgoldman.podbean.com/
