With this special 4-hour broadcast, Irene and her co-host in life, Peter Keepnews, celebrate the lives of these two giants of jazz.

Dean, I'm sorry but I don't know who Warren Dewey is or was. The name means nothing to me. As to who my father studied with at Columbia, I'm sure he mentioned some names, but my ravaged brain has not retained any of them. Although I do know that he was at Columbia at the same time as Jack Kerouac and Allen Ginsberg. As to his dealings with Helen Keane, I shall maintain a discreet silence.

Discreet silence understood. What a time to be at Columbia!

Dewey was (alas, he died in early '20, pre-lockdown, I believe) an engineer with Columbia et al. He worked on the live Weather Report 8:30 album, some EW&F, and significantly on Little Feat's astonishing live album, for which he helped Lowell George overdub some solos. Had a stereo store in town near where I live. Warren was a fun, sweet guy.

Those were the days at Tower, weren't they, doc?

Did you jinx yourself with the comment yesterday about hoping to get home from work in time for all of Irene's show today?

Regarding the comment made about O. Keepnews and "far out" sessions, the Bartz and Joe Henderson albums on Milestone were pretty "far out" as well as lovely.

I really like the deep-dive (or skim, more likely) into a producer or engineer. A worthy theme for other technicians/musicians. But the family connection here is a special benefit.

@WR. It is indeed a marimba that Hutcherson is playing, but I have never heard any mallet man explore the topmost bars with such fervor before.
