What's Going On

Air Date: 11/5/2023 on 90.5 WICN 8am-12pm ET

No, nothing here about Marvin Gaye. Sorry!

Just some musings this week as we revisit a show from a few months ago. 

As I write this I'm listening to songs you'll hear in an upcoming show, like Chris Standring playing Giant Steps, or a new tune from Brian Simpson that just makes me feel good, or a really great version of Cole Porter's Dream Dancing from vocalist Linda Purl. I could go on an on, but wait a minute, aren't I supposed to write about this show?

Ok you got me. So about this show.

This is the one that includes a Musician's Corner interview with pianist Noah Haidu, showcasing his new CD Standards, which features Buster Williams. If you missed it, then here's a good chance to catch it again, and read about it here.

Just before that, check out the juxtoposition of Charlie Parker and Greg Abate, two of my favorite alto sax players!

And now I feel guilty, about the Marvin thing. So here, check out the George Benson number in hour four. 
 
Marvin said I'm good. 👌

Best,

Marty

The Sunday Jazz Brunch Presents Gabriel Espinosa: From Yucatán to Tarrytown Air Date: 7/7/2024 on 90.5 WICN 8am-12pm ET I'm impressed with the lineup of artists appearing at Mark Morganelli's Jazz Forum in Tarrytown, New York. Recently Gabriel Espinosa performed with his superb band. In the photo above, we see Mr. Espinosa feeling the bass, with drummer Graciliano Zambonin reacting to the groove of the moment. Misha Tsiganov Also featured in the group was the very talented Misha Tsiganov on piano, as well as Aviana Gedler vocals and violin, and Alexandra Ridout trumpet and flugelhorn. Aviana Gedler Alexandra Ridout Not only was the music simply great to listen and groove to, but Mr. Espinosa's talk about the songs made it very interesting. There was music from Brazil, as well as music from Mr. Espinosa's home, Yucatán Mexico. In addition, we heard a Cuban Bolero, a Spanish folk tune, and even a Latin version of the Carpenters' Close to You . There is nothing like im...

The Sunday Jazz Brunch Presents Musician's Corner: Tania Grubbs Air Date: 12/22/2024 on 90.5 WICN 8am-12pm ET LISTEN TO THE SEGMENT HERE   Vocalist Tania Grubbs has released her second album, The Sound of Love . When I looked at the song list, I was reassured and impressed upon finding Duke Ellington's Sound of Love . Her take on this song is masterful. During her Musician's Corner interview, she will talk about two songs on the new CD, Tadd Dameron's If You Could See Me Now , and an original composition entitled The Sculptor's Hands .  What I noticed about Mrs Grubbs is that she finds new ways to express standards from the Great American Songbook. I found her version of Something to Live For to be superb, as well as Slow Hot Wind .  ................................................................................................................................................. Tune in at 9:20 am ET  to hear this edition of Musician's Corner.  ..................
