View DJ Peter's profile |
Obscure musical gems, avant experimentation, and classics worth rehearing. A conurbation of Leslie speakers, timbales, plungers, arch-tops, tablas, and squeaky reeds. Black ties, pork pies, Cuban boots, Nudie suits, bobbysocks, turtlenecks, and high-heeled sneakers. Jazz is the north star but it’s a wide universe, so says The Laughing Clock.

What are people dining on? Extending my show over the dinner hour means I'm not always eating a regular meal. But have some fruit and nuts at hand.
Make me envious! What you got, folks?

I was already a fan of Bill Holman's and Sy Johnson's writing, but I didn't really appreciate Al Cohn's arranging until hearing these records.
