JazzPod Special
Special “Sunset Boulevard” session acknowledging the musical talent, genius and contribution of three Legends who have recently departed this world: James Brown, Alice Coltrane and Sivuca. With this 2 hour set we explore only some of this huge library of music they have left us, including tracks: from James Brown’s most funky albums “Hell”, “The Payback” and “In The Jungle Groove” with a little jazz and soul; from Alice Coltrane’s excellent “Eternity” and “Universal Consciousness” plus a live appearance with husband John on a 20 minute long version of “My Favourite Things” (wow hold on tight!); and from Sivuca’s “Rendez-vou a Rio” and self-titled album, including the jazz dance classic “Ain’t No Sunshine” among others.
This is by no means a best of, other far in-depth dedicated sessions can be found among the jazz casters online scene. Check out Bending Corners for two very good sessions by the Godfather of Jazzcasters…
BIG Respect, many thanks and may you all Rest In Peace; James Brown, Alice Coltrane, Sivuca.
