3rd show, April 6th. 2007

I just realized now that the thought of updating this blog did not occur to me at all when I had the second show on March 23rd. Well, if I can find the playlist, I'll put it up sometime.

In the meantime, here's what I played last night:


Ali Akbar Khan with Asha Bhosle and Swapan Chaudhuri/ Tarana/ Legacy
Airto / Free/ Free
Kieran Hebden & Steve Reid/ Soul Oscillations / The Exchange Session Vol.1
Joe Henderson/Beatrice/ An Evening with Joe Henderson, Charlie Haden, Al Foster
Alice Coltrane/ One for the Father/ Transfiguration
Johnny Dynai Quartet/Song for Biko/ Song for Biko
Eric Dolphy / The Meeting/ The Berlin Concerts
Ali Akbar Khan / Dhrupad/ Legacy



I was hoping to find this delightful song by the boston typewriter orchestra; alas, the CD was nowhere to be found. But I will, I will somehow play it for next time. Stay tuned. I'll be back on air the 20th.
