A 20-minute
20:26
set of uninterrupted music
20:29
to classic recordings. The last
20:31
thing you heard, Sonny Rollins,
20:34
Asiatic Raze, that is a
20:36
Kenny Dorham composition. The
20:38
album is Nuke's time. Nuke
20:42
being a nickname for Sonny
20:44
Rollins because of his resemblance
20:46
to Brooklyn Dodger
20:49
pitcher Don Newcomb. And
20:52
this is a recording from 1959 featuring
20:54
a great quartet, Sonny Rollins
20:56
on tenor saxophone, Wynton Kelly
20:59
on piano, Doug Watkins on
21:01
bass, and Philly Jo Jones
21:04
doing a tremendous job there on
21:06
drums. Before that, we heard from
21:09
John Coltrane, My Favorite Things,
21:11
a classic recording in the
21:13
jazz canon. And that
21:16
features the beginnings of
21:18
the great John Coltrane quartet,
21:20
John Coltrane on soprano saxophone,
21:22
McCoy Tyner on piano, Steve
21:25
Davis on bass, and Elvin
21:27
Jones on drums. We're going
21:30
to bring things more up to
21:32
date on this next track, a
21:34
brand new album from trumpeter Eddie
21:36
Henderson, a great album that was
21:38
released towards the end of last
21:40
year. Name of
21:42
the album is Witness to History,
21:45
and I kind of take it
21:47
as a retrospective on Eddie Henderson's
21:49
career. It's a fine album. You
21:52
should check it out. It features
21:54
besides Eddie Henderson on trumpet, Donald
21:56
Harrison on saxophone, George
21:58
Cables on piano. Gerald Cannon
22:01
on bass and Lenny White on
22:03
drums. We're going to hear a track called Why

Lie, a chick Corea composition performed
39:18
by Joe Farrell from the album
39:21
Moon Germs. I played another version
39:24
of that piece from Stan
39:26

39:28
a lot better. It's Joe
39:31
Farrell on soprano sax, Herbie Hancock
39:33
on electric piano, Stanley Clarke on
39:35
bass, and Jack De Jeanette on
