Alyn is playing listener's requests including some bebop and if we are very good children he will tell us what the music is later so we will just have to be a mushroom [a synonym for patient eh]
Julian devotes the whole show to the Art Themen Quartet
..now if JLU has an advance playlist [albeit in the crap iTunes format] why can't JRR?

Hi Trevor!
Julian devotes the whole show to the Art Themen Quartet
recorded as part of the 10th Anniversary celebrations of the 'Jazz On A Winter's Weekend' festival in Southport. Art's latest project 'New Directions' features the stellar line-up of pianist Gareth Williams, trumpeter Steve Fishwick, bassist Arni Somogyi and drummer Winston Clifford. Themen previously fronted Stan Tracey's quartet for 20 years, and has played alongside music legends including Mick Jagger, Chuck Berry and Alexis Korner.

Jon3 continues to feature the LJF
Featured sets include the bass-led Luc Ex Trio, where heavily improvised pieces build through the saxophone dialogues of Ab Baars and Ingrid Laubrock, while Ex's acoustic bass guitar growls and prompts emerging themes. British guitarist Anton Hunter and his trio touch on a very different landscape, with a beautiful set of slow-burning melodicism. The spirit of Adventures of Sound - mixing up the bands into spontaneous ensembles - comes to the fore in a group featuring American drummer Jeff Williams and electronics whiz Leafcutter John, alongside Ex and Laubrock.
Also on the programme we celebrate the 70th birthday of composer and bandleader Henry Threadgill, getting the inside track on the man and his music from some of his closest colleagues over the years.
