I absolutely love this band. All the people in involved are incredible. The addition of Steel Guitar and Violin is right up my ally. Wonderfully meditative, and simple. Bill Frisell gives a wonderful rendition of some classic Beatles tune.
NPR constantly surprises me with all these little gems. Here’s another one. Every month they host a Live At The Village Vanguard set, where they stream it live to the world, and then archive it. So that means there are numerous sets online of what is possible the most famous jazz club in the world.
You’ve got Joe Lovano, Robert Glasper, and recently there’s Roy Hargrove. Basically, the heaviest artists on the scene. (see how I refrain from using the terms “Cats” and “Killing” this whole post.) Keep it up NPR!
