July 24, 2023

Nine is the number when it comes to Breaking The Tethers. Unless I play a bunch of short tunes and I don’t play anything very long, I end up featuring nine songs on the show. This is what happened this week (and on many other weeks). A few tracks to point out from this week’s nine:

“Trip merchant” by Larry Young. Organ jazz starting to head outside, just before Young became Khalid of Space.

“Fell to earth” by Soft Machine. This might be the best cut from this long-running group’s latest studio album, Other doors.

“Outeroids” by Alan Shorter. Free jazz from Wayne Shorter’s trumpet and flugelhorn playing brother.

You can listen to the nine at shorturl.at/atyF4

Thanks.
