There are three albums featured in this podcast, ranging from traditional to brand new. Starting with the Legacy Edition of Miles 'Round About Midnight from 1957, to Corea, Clarke and White's new trio album Forever (with guest artist Jean Luc Ponty on violin, not piano as I say in a mic break) and finally Robert Glasper's highly anticipated Black Radio. From this podcast it is clear how jazz has progressed over the decades. Perhaps Glasper's latest CD foretells a new direction in jazz that has the potential to appeal to a wider audience and breath new life into this great musical art form.
