July 6, 2007: Sounds of Sam Rivers
Today we feature the music of amazing jazz octogenarian Sam Rivers, multi-instrumentalist and composer. From his early days in Boston in the 1950s to his recent and consistently excellent and inspiring work, Mr. Rivers remains one of the most important voices of post-bebop jazz. We’ll hear music from his classic Blue Note albums as well as more recent recordings. Catch him at www.rivbea.com!
