JazzNotJazz

sat 24 dec 2022 22:00 hrs
Composers: Bill Evans | Dave Grusin

This Saturday, in JazzNotJazz, a non-stop programme (part two of a triptych) on the theme of two Guilty Pleasures.

At least in the eyes of this compiler :-). And in the eyes of, say, Penguin Guide to Jazz non-existent…!

Bob James & Dave Grusin were and are highly sought-after studio musicians, arrangers and so much more (music for films and TV series!). In the 70s and 80s, they made excellent albums themselves. On first hearing, perhaps too sweet and accessible but better listening always with a funky rhythm section, strong themes and not forgetting jazzy solos. To underline that, a selection by the two gentlemen of their solo albums from the 70s and 80s. Ears open and, above all, an open mind!

JazzNotJazz is a programme where from 100 years of Jazz recordings, a unique mixtape is compiled with meaningful and sometimes not so meaningful facts. It’s also about The Soul of Jazz, so forays into affiliated styles are sure to be made. There are irregular sections, such as “The Not Played Down Standard”, “Ellington Train Songs”, “Jazz Cameos” and “More is Better”.
