This week’s regular show includes a double Ellington Train Song, two songs by Caldera in the More Is Better section and four times the 21st century with Robert Glasper and Dorian Concept, among others.
JazzNotJazz is a series of unique mixtapes made up of 100 years of jazz recordings, with useful and sometimes not so useful facts. It is also about The Soul of Jazz, so detours into related styles are guaranteed. There are irregularly recurring items, such as “The Unplayed Standard”, “Ellington Train Songs”, “Jazz Cameos” and “More is Better”.
