Flowing in the Coltrane Current

from Another Sound · host Greg Bryant with KKJZ

On this episode of Another Sound, we explore how the music and spirit of John Coltrane continue to move through contemporary jazz, not as a monument to the past, but as a living current. Joined by saxophonists Isaiah Collier and Lakecia Benjamin, the conversation traces the ways Coltrane’s legacy still shapes improvisation, composition, spirituality, and artistic risk today.Rather than focusing on tribute or imitation, Collier and Benjamin reflect on what it means to inherit a restless musical language, one built on curiosity, discipline, openness, and transformation. Together, they discuss how Coltrane’s influence extends beyond technique or repertoire and into the deeper question of how artists pursue honesty and freedom through their sound. The Coltrane current is still flowing.

Song Against Songs, The by G. K. Chesterton (1874 - 1936) LibriVox LibriVox volunteers bring you 9 recordings of The Song Against Songs by G. K. Chesterton. This was the Fortnightly Poetry project for October 16, 2011.Chesterton was a large man, standing 6 feet 4 inches (1.93 m) and weighing around 21 stone (130 kg; 290 lb). His girth gave rise to a famous anecdote. During World War I a lady in London asked why he was not 'out at the Front'; he replied, 'If you go round to the side, you will see that I am.' On another occasion he remarked to his friend George Bernard Shaw: "To look at you, anyone would think a famine had struck England". Shaw retorted, "To look at you, anyone would think you have caused it". P. G. Wodehouse once described a very loud crash as "a sound like Chesterton falling onto a sheet of tin."( Summary from Wikipedia )
