Deep Focus

Sunny Murray changed our whole conception of what drums could do in music.   In this rebroadcast of Mitch Goldman's Deep Focus from 2018, fellow drummer/composer William Hooker thinks (and feels) as deeply about the role of drums as anyone we have heard speak on the topic.  Special guest appearance from reedman/scholar Ras Moshe.  

 

This Monday night (6/13) from 6pm to 9pm NYC time on WKCR 89.9FM, WKCR-HD1 and wkcr.org.

 

Tuesday morning it goes up on the Deep Focus podcast on your favorite podcasting app or at our hosting site https://mitchgoldman.podbean.com/

This Monday night on Jazz Alternatives (6pm to 9pm) Mitch Goldman is joined by drummer/bandleader Ben Perowsky.  They will put Miles Davis fall 1967 tour in Deep Focus with unreleased live recordings.  When Sony put out “Live in Europe 1967,” Pitchfork said, “It isn’t just the best band Miles ever led, but one of the choicest small groups in jazz history… At its heart, jazz thrives on bold, sensitive interaction in the moment, and Live in Europe 1967 represents the pinnacle of that practice.”  That may well be but the whole story has not been told.  We can’t wait to hear what Ben Perowsky has to say about these recordings from the  WKCR archives.

 

Only on WKCR 89.9FM, WKCR HD-1 and wkcr.org.  Tuesday morning it goes up on the Deep Focus podcast on your favorite podcasting app or at https://mitchgoldman.podbean.com/
