August 31, 2020

Not an "all new" show this week but pretty close to it. There was loads of material from 2020 and nothing older than 2018. Just the way it went but, to be honest, I am a bit backlogged with tunes that I want to play from the last few years. No harm in catching up. Some notes on a few of the tracks:

"Osvaldo's rebellion" by Mestizo Beat - This got quite the buzz going, both in the texts to the booth during the show and on Twitter afterwards. It's good stuff.

"Scientology" by the Alex Moxon Quartet - Given the title, I couldn't resist dedicating this to the Galactic Lord Xenu 😆

"Mantra" by Stick Men - Great melodic prog-jazz (this show was kinda proggy, looking back on it) from three fantastic musicians, all with King Crimson associations.

"5/4 thing" by Frank Basile/Sam Dillon Quartet - Five notes in the bar, quarter note gets the beat. Always good to hear a baritone sax swing.

And's here the link to the recording of this show: https://bit.ly/2EMrNT3 Enjoy!

Please join me on Monday, September 7, from 10-11 am MT for the next edition of Breaking The Tethers. Tune in at 90.9 FM or cjsw.com. I suspect that this one will be in the same vein as the Aug. 31 program. But we'll see.

Thanks.

Andrew
