Listen to any song by Art Blakey and the Jazz Messengers. There will be no question in your mind about who is driving the bus or who is riding on the bus or where this bus is going. Who's driving the bus? Art Blakey is driving! Who's riding the bus? Everybody! Where's this bus going? Straight ahead!
Seventeen years of Deep Focus and no one has ever called for Art Blakey's music? I don't know how that is possible but it ends Monday night (6/24). Saxophonist/Jazz scholar Eric Person joins host Mitch Goldman to focus on the music this one-of-a-kind drummer/bandleader. They will play recordings from the WKCR archives that even hardcore Blakey fans have never heard.
It's on WKCR 89.9FM, WKCR-HD or wkcr.org Monday from 6pm to 9pm NYC time. Or join us next week when it goes up on the Deep Focus podcast on your favorite podcasting app or at https://mitchgoldman.podbean.com/. Either way, it's ad-free, all free, totally non-commercial.
