It's often the way these days that I hardly have the opportunity to take stock of what I'm doing especially the one weekend in a month when I have back to back radio shows. Consequently by the time I came round to editing this, I'd more or less completely forgotten what I'd played. I was pleasantly surprised by just how much I enjoyed listening back (or at least skimming through to remind myself), hope the same goes for you... 1.Michael Kiwanuka - Black Man In A White World 2.

I wish I had the time to write!! With one of my 8 month old twin boys perched on my knee, and the other screaming in his chair it's a tad tricky. However my weekly music refuge on a Sunday night is a little sanctuary from all the joys and strains of parenthood. The Cosmic Jam is a twenty one mile round trip by bike and an hour and three quarter journey to the far reaches of my musical mind... or something like that... still. I also am enjoying getting out there again to play for the people and this Saturday it's a welcome return to the lovely Brilliant Corners for a strictly vinyl session on their audiophile system along side the Feeling Good don Harv Nagi and Southern Soul Festival supremo Marko Pavlovic. Two of London's most dedicated purveyors of jazzual radio sounds teaming up for a proper session. Check us if you can! https://www.facebook.com/events/1661667644100263/ Until next time... Peace! 1.

A man who shone so brightly, lifted so many hearts, who provided a million dollar backbeat to so many hits before he took his mission West and forged in the Serpentine Fire of spiritual potential the greatest, most transcendent music machine to have walked this planet. Maybe it's easier to think of Maurice White as passed than waylaid by Parkinson's, his fire will burn ever brightly, for now and always. Are you satisfied In your life and time Does it clear you mind With all the hurt you find? Built on Mother Earth They were meant to stay Nations bloom today On gifts of yesterday Born of the Earth, are nature's children Fed by the Wind, the breath of life Judged by the fiery hands of God World goes by the hand Of the master plan Can't you understand You're but a grain of sand Do you need a guide To make you feel satisfied? Head to the sky Will tell you why Born of the Earth, are nature's children Fed by the Wind, the breath of life Judged by the fiery hands of God 1. Ramsey Lewis Trio - Uhuru 2.

I'm of that generation, I experienced the "Starman" moment seeing David Bowie on Top Of The Pops with a shock of orange spikes, dressed in clothes that defied description, putting his arm around Mick Ronson in a way that seems so innocuous today but was extraordinary then. At school the following day it felt as though the world had rearranged itself overnight to accommodate this beguiling new presence, similarly when the news broke on Monday morning it was like losing one of the major coordinates of my world, I felt disorientated and adrift, this time in a bad way. David Bowie was just a phenomenal artist who defined the seventies, the decade belonged to him; from glam to soul to ambient, from straight up rock'n roll to new contours of sonic wizardry, Bowie took us on a helter-skelter ride reinventing himself again and again, and all with a consummate cool and a fiery creativity. I wouldn't pretend that Bowie made a telling contribution to black music, and Luther Vandross had quite enough talent to make it without a leg-up from the Thin White Duke, yet it's impossible to understand Bowie's oeuvre without looking at his relationship with it. From stealing Mingus titles "Wham Bam Thank You Ma'am" to taking inspiration from James Brown for Ziggy Stardust's "Rock 'n Roll Suicide".. the soulful side of Bowie is never far from the surface. Then in '74, riding the crest of a wave of his (glam) success, Bowie makes the kind of radical move that would go on to define his career, he makes a soul record. Recording at Philadelphia's Sigma Sound and bringing on board the likes of Vandross, Sly & The Family Stone drummer Andy Newmark, and guitarist Carlos Alomar, Young Americans is a record that stands both within and outside tradition. A lush, sensuous and emotive album that Bowie himself would describe as "plastic soul", self effacing as ever, as he was about his singing voice, Young Americans and several cuts from the following Station To Station are as good as it gets when it comes to a white artist making soul music in their own way.....after all "Fame" and "Golden Years" were good enough for U.S. tv's definitive Soul Train... But hey, I don't need to justify Bowie's brilliance, begrudge him and you can stand outside with the real weirdos!!!! Concentrating on this mid seventies period, when coincidentally Bowie was taking vast quantities of the old marching powder, and dipping into both preceding and subsequent phases, here's two hours of appreciation and celebration. Let's not lament too much, yes Bowie's is an irreplaceable talent, but we should be grateful for all he gave through those golden years. 1. 1984 2. Golden Years 3. Fascination 4.

O.K. so maybe I could have dug even deeper, but hopefully you'll appreciate that with the birth of my twin boys, crate diggin' time is limited, so recourse to few old favourites in this selection. Nevertheless it's not exactly obvious unless you're one of those chin stroking jazz snobs. I'd been wanting to do a kind of "pure" jazz show for a while, the criteria could have been even more stringent, I could have outlawed all electric instruments, but I did want to keep some variety. I can't remember the last time I played something from the Riverside label on the show, so slipping a couple into the first half hour was kind of satisfying, great tunes from Jimmy Heath and Clifford Jordan. Then there's vocals, a scat masterclass from Jon Hendricks, Ann Young tearing up a standard and The Metronomes with silky smooth harmonies. I also decided to do a mini Prestige feature.... what's the difference between Blue Note and Prestige, a day's rehearsal.... yes it is the kind of ugly sister of classic jazz labels, more "blowing dates" less recording sessions. Yet of course there are some awesome titles in the Prestige catalogue, Frank Wess' "Southern Comfort" is certainly one of those, soul-jazz with a Latin twist and really punchy well balanced recording. As always the mellow meltdown in the middle is fun to do, it's what radio's for in my opinion. Listening to Duke Pearson's Sweet Honey Bee album again for the first time in ages, the beauty of "After The Rain" left me quite astounded, Pearson was the quintessential Blue Note artist, he acted as an A&R man for Alfred Lion, and composed the timeless "Cristo Redentor" for which he should be duly honoured as it is one of the most beautiful melodies of all time. "After The Rain" comes close to that peak of sublimity. Continuing the rainy theme the Masabumi Kikuchi composition "Drizzling Rain" from his album with Gil Evans is just as beguiling, with a Japanese lyricism, a kind of Jazz haiku. "En Passant" performed by West Coast stalwarts Shelly Manne ands His Men is an early composition by the great John Williams from U.S. tv series Checkmate, Williams' list of film credits is ridiculous , probably the most successful composer of the twentieth century? All that instrumental grace is followed by a trio of vocal cuts with a morning theme....lushness from Carmen McRae, the brilliant Lorez Alexandria, and Andy Bey ripping some conscious flavour through Gary Bartz NTU Troops leftfoot jazz-funk. Closing the show the last sequence gets lowdown and funky, and a bit abstract! Drums and basslines, a touch of James Brown in Roy Haynes' "Guadalupe", and some electronic undertow in Julian Priester's " Love Love" which I played just a portion of as it covers a whole side. Shame that I only squeezed a the first bit of Monette Sudler's "Brighter Days For You" as it takes me back to my early days of The Cosmic Jam all those years ago.... still love it, and the title says it all.
