Jazz Bastard Podcast

The theme this episode is  - got ya! - there isn't a theme.  What we do have are two mildly historical piano-led recordings by musicians who couldn't be more different if they tried, and two new releases by musicians also pulling in different directions.  Get a large group together and go for eclecticism?  Or just multi-track yourself and add a duet partner to the mix?  You, dear listeners, can pick the approach you like.  Chucho Valdez – LIVE AT VILLAGE VANGUARD; Misha Mengelberg – NO IDEA; Ben Wendel – ALL ONE;   Mehmet Ali Sanlikol - TURKISH HIPSTER .
