Comment:

A swagger through decades, style & national boundaries, through white & black, from swing, blues, soul, jazz, Cajun & Cuban. In Paris a pre-Jane Birkin Serge Gainsbourg growls through Pigalle; we eavesdrop on Satchmo calling Ed Murrow `Daddy', check out Parisian Jazzster Mina Agossi as she checks Fats Waller into the 21st Century. In Africa we team up with Fela Kuti & Isiah Ejire.over the pond in the U.S. we groove out as Sammy Davis transforms from Mr. Vegas into Sammy the Soul Hipster.go deep with a pre-Lady Marmalade Patti Labelle .rhyme'n'grind with Lee Dorsey & keep our fingers crossed for Miss Washington who can't wait to see her baby's face. one of the great arrangers & interpreters of the twentieth century Nina Simone essays the 19th Century cornet player Buddy Bolden.Woody tears up Frisco and we're outta here to L.A. & get with Chet leading his Nontet through Mythe...drop in on Bix's pal Hoagy .follow Nathan Abshire & The Balfa Bros into the pinegroves... red eyed to New York City, we bounce with Bud before his mind demons took up permanent residence.. wear our jeans round our knees with the New York Rap Collective Stetasonic .. back to the pre-revolutionary Cuba of the fifties and tune our dial to Radio Progreso.Tickets please!
