Dave Listens

This week's podcast is introduced by Dave Holland, followed by a track from his Pass It On CD. Then we feature a brand new killin' album by Chucho Valdez and the Afro-Cuban Messengers. Dig Chucho's fine arrangements here. His latin roots never overshadow his obvious love of the jazz form. On the two tracks we play are tributes to Joe Zawinul and the Marsalis Family. Another fine album by Skye Steele was featured last week, and we play another stunning track from his album late bloomer.
