This week we hear recordings by Teddy Charles (who died recently at age 84: info here, here & here), Joe Henderson (Tues. was his 75th birthday), Charles Mingus (the 90th anniversary of his birth was Sunday), Dicky Wells, Dinah Washington, and a piece from the new Joe Locke/Geoffrey Keezer Group CD.
There are four videos below (h/t Marc Myers @ JazzWax for two of them).
The show opens with a selection by Cuban-born pianist Alfredo Rodriquez who performs with his trio at Kuumbwa Jazz in downtown Santa Cruz this coming Monday. Listen to an “All Things Considered” segment on Rodriquez from a few days ago.
