Step into the 883rd episode of Neon Jazz, where the echoes of legends and the pulse of the future intersect. We open with the incomparable Kenny Barron, a living jazz icon still blazing trails, featuring music from his 2024 masterpiece, Beyond This Place. From there, we journey back to the roots with James Moody, the legend who set the stage for Kenny's rise. Next, we spotlight the remarkable Richard X Bennett, whose 2024 album and film, Scavenger, chronicles his triumphant battle against cancer—a true testament to the resilience of art and spirit. The hour continues with a rich tapestry of veterans, including Aubrey Logan, Ben Goldberg, Randy Ingram, and Alex McLaughlin, seamlessly interwoven with timeless sounds from giants like Art Tatum, Bobby Hutcherson, and Barry Harris. We close on a high note, bidding farewell with the timeless artistry of modern legend Louis Hayes and his 2024 release, Artform Revisited. Join us for a soulful journey through jazz's past, present, and future. Let's dig in, my friends.
