All right now we’re listening to Papa J Otis recorded live at Coffee Grounds in Terra Haute, Indiana, on December 21, 2012. Kicking us off we heard “Won’t Be Long” followed by “Cool Cat Alley”, “More Than We Know” and “Banana Tree”. Papa J Otis takes blues and R&B riffs and presents them in a minimalist jazz setting. That’s “Papa Patty” on sax, “Jmac”, bass and vocals, and Otter Fundip, percussion.
Something Blue is broadcast on KASU, 91.9 FM and streaming on the internet at kasu.org.
