Favoriting Music For a Free World with Dave Sewelson: Playlist from May 4, 2019 Favoriting

Dave Sewelson's avatar View Dave Sewelson's profile Favoriting

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.

A few years ago, one of the sysadmins at work showed up on 5/4 dressed as a Jedi. The next day there was an internet outage and a bunch of angry suits from the museum next door descended on the premises. I kinda wish it had happened a day earlier, but that would have meant the guy would have been fired, the internet outage would have lasted longer, and the suits would have felt good

Technically, I didn't have a photographer (or a wedding, NYC City Hall), but I don't want a funereal, or a body to leave behind, so, my wife knows I want a festive event w/ music and an open bar....

(although a friend and his wife, who were witnesses, and another friend, did take pics)

Very interesting conversation guys.
Reuben, do you ever feel like you
are intruding when photographing?

Apologies for the hiccups on the stream, folks. There have been some gremlins all up in our business the past few days. Do not adjust your radio. Or your attitude.

I've seen him a few times (10 or so), so it's OK. I've put out feelers about trading for another day, but that would mean missing Daniel Menche, and I can't do that
  4:28pm
Mark R:

And of course Coltrane, never less than perfect, right?
  4:29pm

There aren't a ton of recordings of him playing with Don Cherry, either. I'm so glad I picked up "The Heavyweight Champion" a few years ago.

@coel: Sadly, the guy I had tentatively convinced to offer a residency has since left to launch his own company. But if I get a chance to ask Daniel Menche whether he'd be interested and he is, I'd sure try to make it happen
