Here Comes ... Jazz Alchemist on "air" (8pm CET)

Ok, I have to say that I'm still struggling. I would want to play at least some pieces from the 'supposed to be' last week playlist - with Wadada Leo Smith and Joe Fonda birthdays on it. I would want to play something from recently reviewed cds ("Morning Glory" and "Varpai"). But on the other hand, as usual in this time of year, I also feel very much like giving in carelessly into Christmas spirit. With Frank and Ella and Muppets and Rudolph and Santa singing swinging songs and wishing You a peaceful time. What would You like to hear?

At the end decided to try my best to do all of those things so here's the playlist:

1. Joe Fonda - The Other Side Of Things (birthday on 16.12)
2. Wadada Leo Smith & Ed Blackwell - The Blue Mountain's Son Drummer (Wadada's birthday on 18.12; new release - Kabell Records 2010)
3. Augusti Fernandez / Barry Guy / Ramon Lopez - La nina de la calla Ibiza (from this album)
4. Andre Pabarciute / Mark Tokar / Klaus Kugel - Varpai (from that album)
5. Andre Pabarciute / Mark Tokar / Klaus Kugel - Archaic Glimpses
6. Mikrokolektyw - Running Without Effort (concert in Klub Re took place 14.12, unfortunately I wasn't there)
7. Augusti Fernandez / Barry Guy / Ramon Lopez - Zahori
8. Wadada Leo Smith - Uprising (version from "Kulture Jazz")
9. Wadada Leo Smith & Ed Blackwell - Uprising
10. Augusti Fernandez / Barry Guy / Ramon Lopez - An Anonymous Soul

and then we give into Christmas spirit with just a couple of evergreens :)
11. Jeff Beck - Amazing Grace
12. Dianne Reeves - Christmas Waltz
13. Frank Sinatra - We Wish You a Merry Christmas
14. Ella Fitzgerald - Christmas Song

  1. amazing grace gra się na pogrzebach - szczególnie padłych bohaterów oraz na uroczystościach państwowych z takich właśnie okazji. Ze świętami to nie ma nic wspólnego.
    Sorry.

  2. nie jest to na pewno klasyczna piosenka świąteczna, jednocześnie jest na tyle uniwersalna, że i do świąt pasuje, nie widzę przeszkód przyznam, śpiewa się na pogrzebach, śpiewa się też i w czasie świąt. Wykonanie też zresztą jest świąteczne właśnie (pochodzi z płyty "Merry Axemas: A Guitar Christmas"). W każdym razie dziękuje za uwagę.
