Like Woody Shaw: Bremen, 1983November 21, 2018 at 2:58 AM Trumpeter Woody Shaw had an urgent sound, even on ballads.

Like Roland Kirk: Cuckoo SerenadeSeptember 30, 2016 at 2:49 AM In September 1964, Roland Kirk recorded an important album for Mercury called I Talk With the Spirits. The album was important because of its instrumental eclecticism, its spiritual essence, its original works and playing by Kirk and the group. Today, the music holds up gloriously. It's independent-minded, it's melodic and it's soulful.
On Sept. 16, two songs were recorded—the album's title track and Serenade to a Cuckoo.
