David Ornette Cherry's name should rightly conjure associations, given that a track of his is due for broadcasting as part of today's J to Z, given that he passed away aged 64 in London last November as a result of an asthma attack. He was a son of Don Cherry, who, from reading up, played piano , keyboards, exotic flutes and so on, and was it seems particularly associated with a style of Afrobeat that owed to that of the pioneer Fela Kuti. I have to admit to never having heard of him until now.

Today's J to Z was introduced as "a second chance to hear" and was originally broadcast last December.

Much of the fare on offer having proved pretty soporific, I must have drifted off the first time around as well!

The [R] normally present at the bottom of a repeat programme in Radio Times wasn't.

Yes, after last week's improvement it was back to usual with J to Z's bland and uninspiring stuff.
