Charles Mingus said jazz was a word invented to separate musicians from their money. Music for a Free World brings us together, drawing listeners to the healing power of smooth free jazz. Each week, surprise guests bring their own sides to spin and their instruments of choice to spontaneously jam.

@Doug, that sounds rough. When I was there the music teacher was an Australian guy, former body builder. his name escapes me at the moment. I wasn't in band, but he let me play double bass in the practice rooms while i was skipping my other classes :)
