As I type, there’s less than a day to go before the Breaking The Tethers funding drive edition. The show will be on Monday, October 25, from 10 to 11 am MT at cjsw.com or 90.9 FM. I’ll play some tunes, chat with some, and, hopefully, much money will be raised for CJSW. On that last note, my goal is to beat last year’s total, which was $1082; you can help me do that by donating at cjsw.com/donate anytime or call 403-220-5000 during the show.
When you pledge, there will be some incentives available at the station level and at the show level. Looking at the latter, there’s two things. First, there’s going to be a digital mix up for grabs featuring some great tunes played on Breaking The Tethers; here’s what’s in the mix:
Ray Baretto - “Right on”
Charnett Moffett - “Rejoice”
Bobby Hutcherson - “Dialogue”
Ephemerals - “Rising”
Sun Ra Arkestra - “Unmask the Batman”
Steve Howe - “Siberian khatru”
Lunar Octet - “Oye”
Rachel Eckroth - “Oil”
The Witherbees - “I just wasn’t made for these times”
Don Ellis and the Hindustani Jazz Sextet - “Bombay bossa nova”
Frank Foster - “J.P.‘S thing”
Fabiano de Nascimento - “Samba tres”
Anna Webber - “Idiom III”
Derrick Hodge - “Little tone poem”
It’s a fine set of music. Be sure to pick it up!
There’s also several great jazz CDs on deck for pledging:
Errol Garner - Symphony Hall concert
Dave McMurray - Grateful deadication
The Spike Wilmer Trio - Aliens & wizards
Ron Miles - Rainbow sign
Ian Hendrickson-Smith - The lowdown
Kenny Garrett - Sounds from the ancestors
Julian Lage - Squint
James Francies - Purest form
Again, all great stuff. Yours for pledging to the 2021 CJSW Funding Drive and Breaking the Tethers!
Many thanks!
Andrew
PS As I type, the total pledged so far in the Funding Drive is $61,712!
