Matter of Jazz

Here’s last night’s episode of Matter of Jazz, which opened with Charles Mingus’ ambitiously high-concept “Pithecanthropus Erectus” and featured three Bill Evanses at once (”Blue Monk” from Conversations with Myself), early modal music by Miles’ first great sextet (”Milestones”), a Bartok-influenced collaboration between Stan Getz and Eddie Sauter (”I’m Late, I’m Late”), and an expedition to the borders of free jazz with Archie Shepp, eventually closing with an brief recounting of jazz guitar pioneers ranging back from John McLaughlin to Joe Pass to Django Reinhardt. The track listing is available at http://old.wuog.org/dj/world/index.php?page=printplaylist&show_id=14961, and the episode can be streamed below (fast forward about 7 minutes, though, as the math rock show ran over a bit):
