I just learned of the passing of the great master Randy Weston, whose tall shadow hangs over all of us who love, Gnawa Music, African Music, jazz and the intersection of three. He was a lovely person, eager to pass along the knowledge he'd gathered through an amazing life. I hope this podcast helps pass along some of his wisdom. He was humble, sweet and present and we're lucky to have had him on the planet for 91 years.
We just learned of the passing of the legend McCoy Tyner, who changed the course of jazz piano. Of course he's most well known for his work in John Coltrane's classic quartet, but he has an amazing body of work beyond that, his album Sama Layuca for a start. Here's my 2011 interview that we conducted in the kitchen of the Blue Note.
