Jazz Bastard Podcast

Since the seventies, it's arguable that most jazz musicians work in 'old' idioms (even if they mix and match them in new ways), but this episode's artists each take on aspects of jazz's past that seem, well, more past than most.  Sometimes the commitment to the older idiom is complete, sometimes it comes and goes, but either way the results are fascinating.  Scott Hamilton – AFTER HOURS; Evan Arntzen – COUNTERMELODY; Charnett Moffett – NEW LOVE ; Keith Brown – AFRICAN RIPPLES.  Isaac Hayes, Elvis Presley, and other towering examples of American masculinity dominate pop matters.
