This episode presents something special: music that is beyond category. Here we take a look at 12 saxophonists who are post-bebop and post-hard bop, but are discussed very little in comparison to other saxophonists (Ornette Coleman, John Coltrane, Albert Ayler, Michael Brecker, Chris Potter, etc). Each have their own style and sound that draws from various sources and the results are truly amazing! Give this episode a shot - it's not one to be missed!

The Dr. Jazz Podcast: Post-Bop Saxophonic Creativity (Apr. 2023)

My long running Jazz Radio program (Since 1981!!!) is posted weekly on SoundCloud. I keep each program up for 2 weeks.

This is only my fourth new program since the summer of 2024!!!!! I still haven't been able to raise funds for rebuilding my studio, but did a temporary setup.... Let me know if you appreciate having Forms & Feelings back Due to flooding last year, I'm now alternating repeats with new shows, with this temporary studio setup. Thanks for your patience.
