Playlist for the Unpopular Music Webcast for June 30, 2018

Today it music for people who think it's too hot to go outside and would rather stay in and listen to the internet. We have a typically jazzy first hour which includes two tenor sax-piano-drums trios from differing vintages. The  second hour becomes a bit percussion dominated, but moves toward some summertime sounds.



Check it out after the break...
So here's my deal on when Ornette Coleman plays instruments other than the saxophone, of which he is a master - Ornette was not formally trained on either violin or trumpet. When he plays violin, which he played left handed, he would often come up with things that a "normal" violin player never would, which were often intuitively musical and quite interesting. When he plays the trumpet, ...well, he usually just sounds like someone who doesn't play the trumpet very well. (If you want a really harsh assessment, ask Miles Davis.)
