Tonight’s show features new music from Texan pianist Robert Glasper, Norwich based Red Shadow Quartet and Dub Colossus recorded in Addis Ababa – all outernational Cosmic Jazz music. We had our usual Japanese jazz diversion with the What’s Up crew and also played a track from undervalued US vocalist N’Dambi’s second album Tunin’ Up and Cosignin’. There’s news that a fourth album titled Pink Elephant will be released by Stax later this year. Again, in advance of our live show on 23 September we featured more latin jazz including Yusef Lateef’s great Oscarlypso – a track we’ll definitely be spinning at Saints.
