Jazz Bastard Podcast 208 - Octets and Octopi

Hooray - we've made it alive through 2020 and through eight seasons of this podcast, too.  To celebrate the big "eighth" (the internet claims it's bronze and pottery for that anniversary, should you want to send gifts) we talk about half that many jazz octets, and throw in an album named after a funky sea-creature as a bonus.  In pop matters, Harry Nilsson's alternate takes and Italian prog get brief look-ins.  Gianluigi Trovesi Octet- FROM G TO G; Alan Wakeman – THE OCTET BROADCASTS 1969 AND 1979; Paul Jackson – BLACK OCTOPUS; Rod Levitt –DYNAMIC SOUND PATTERNS; Paul Dunmall Octet – BEBOP STARBURST.
