Jazz Bastard Podcast 275 - Live? from the Village Vanguard
from Jazz Bastard Podcast · host Michael Caldwell
There are many storied jazz venues, but for a great recorded legacy, none quite matches the Village Vanguard. So many epochal improvised moments put to tape! So many clinking wine glasses captured for eternity! Such a matchless, smoky atmosphere of creation in the heat of the moment! (Insert record scratch here.) The boys don't look at the best known monuments from the place, but rather start with a lesser known session from the end of the seventies and then examine three brand new "Live from the Vanguard" recordings and ask - is the magic still there? Kris Davis – LIVE AT THE VILLAGE VANGUARD; Mark Turner – LIVE AT THE VILLAGE VANGUARD; Kurt Rosenwinkle – UNDER COVER, LIVE AT THE VILLAGE VANGUARD; Woody Shaw – STEPPING STONES: LIVE AT THE VILLAGE VANGUARD.
