This is a copy of the Jazzology Radio program I recorded for 91.1 Jazz FM Toronto.  It aired on April 14th, 2016 and was hosted by Heather Bambrick.  This radio program features a playlist I curated that illustrates some of the more important musical influences on my playing and writing in the Jazz/Jazz-Rock Genre.

Simple Shapes EP, A Gordon Hyland Trio Project.
Gordon Hyland - Tenor Saxophone, Mark Godfrey - Double Bass, Kyle McGyle Drums.  Recorded by Andrew Rasmussen at Desert Fish Studios on November 10th, 2016.

"[Less]forgettable" is Unforgettable by Irving Gordon, arranged by Gordon Hyland, as a tribute to the complexity of our most revered relationships and the compromises we make to have "Unforgettable" moments with those we care about ;-)

"Off The Wire" was written by Gordon Hyland and inspired by the music of Leonard Cohen.

"Stella By Starlight" by Victor Young, a saxophone trio take on this beautiful standard.  Without a chordal instrument to fill in the harmonic picture, the bass, drums, and saxophone have a little more freedom to develop ideas and focus on improvising as a group.

Stella By Starlight - Simple Shapes

Off The Wire - [For Leonard Cohen] - Simple Shapes

[Less]Forgettable - Simple Shapes

This set is comprised of three different groups that I play in; The Mackenzie Longpre Group, Beetleback (Trio), and an unnamed Quintet.
