The doctor had a sax attack this week having 'overdosed' on the just-arrived, absolutely gorgeous (and mostly previously unreleased) Paul Desmond box from Mosaic (and I'm more of a 'Phil Woods kind of guy'!). One thing led to another: our chronological Sonny Rollins celebration (The Sound of Sonny); Kenny Garrett with Miles 'live'; Miguel Zenon; Don Braden channeling his inner Grover; Bird with Tiny Grimes; Charles Lloyd and Benny Golson (with the Jazztet) play the blues; Rudresh Mahanthappa does Bird his way! On yeah, we celebrate the Brubeck/McRae centennials with tracks from The Real Ambassadors, and guitarist Gilad Hekselman takes us home with a sweet one. Ya' got ears? You'll enjoy the show.
