Brian Blade & The Fellowship Band, Traveling Mercies
Welcome to Something Blue. I’m Hairy Larry and I’ve got the blues, for you.
Mark Turner Quintet, Moment’s Notice
Now that’s what I’m talking about, the Mark Turner Quintet playing “Moments Notice”. Kicking us off tonight we heard Brian Blade and The Fellowship Band do “Traveling Mercies”. Tonight I’m featuring fantastic new jazz compositions from bands that are writing and playing today.
Something Blue is broadcast on KASU, 91.9 FM and streaming on the internet at kasu.org.
I’m Hairy Larry, host of Something Blue. Visit the Something Blue website at sbblues.com for more information about the show and to listen anytime.
Coming up next here’s the Mark Turner Quintet playing “Blues”. Then we will hear Carla Bley, Andy Shepherd, and Steve Swallow play “Wildlife” from their new album, “Trios”. Writing great jazz pieces for over 50 years, Carla Bley remains one of my favorite jazz composers.

Mark Turner Quintet, Yam Yam II
All right now, that’s the Mark Turner Quintet doing “Yam Yam II”, one of the title tracks from their new album “Yam Yam”. Before that we heard Carla Bley, Andy Shepherd, and Steve Swallow play “Vashkar”. I love these great jazz compositions, all new material from recent releases.

I’m Hairy Larry, host of Something Blue. I follow new jazz at my blog 21st Century Jazz Composers at 21centjazz.com. Jazz is not dead, in fact it’s a hotbed of creativity drawing both on a century of great jazz traditions and other new music, pop and classical.
Closing the show here’s Brian Blade and The Fellowship Band from their album “Body and Shadow” playing “Broken Leg Days” and “Duality”.
