Jesse FarrellElmo Hope might be the biggest, most influential #jazz pianist you've never heard of. He was born 100 years ago this June, in the middle of the Harlem Renaissance. Hope was a child prodigy in classical piano. As a teenager, he pushed his best friends Bud Powell and Thelonious Monk into wildly creative dimensions.
But while Monk and Bud entered the pantheon, Hope never came close to their level of celebrity. He faced a series of personal and creative setbacks in his life, including a heroin addiction which stunted his ability to play. It also led to the revoking of his Cabaret Card — a critical lifeline for artists like himself who relied on #NYC's club scene to get noticed and find work.
Despite all those challenges, Elmo Hope has left an indelible mark on the story of jazz piano. He is revered as a subtle and intellectual player who merged his vast knowledge of harmony with his command of the blues. And his drive to create something new.
Jim Spath@pete @jazz 1st, I'd start with New Orleans, home of jazz, and hit #WWOZ https://www.wwoz.org/
Then, west coast with #KCSM https://kcsm.org/
Filling in the spaces, Boston: https://www.wbgo.org/ #WBGO, Cincinnati https://www.wguc.org/includes/jazz_stream.html .
Only an hour a week, but https://koop.org/program/the-jazz-show/ out of Austin TX and also from the left coast https://www.kalx.berkeley.edu/programs/round-midnight #KALX in Berkeley.
We got to the celebration of Donnie McKethan's life this past Sunday in DC for #WPFW. (photos in my timeline).

PandaCam@Trafalgar225 my faves include old standbys #wbgo and #ksds, college radio #wkcr (usually, plus they have great birthday all day tributes to Trane, Bird, etc) and #whrb (mornings ET only)
Paul SchlichtmanFirst, #WCRB - that Figgy Pudding song you played yesterday afternoon was, by far, the worst piece of music I have every heard on WCRB. Please stick with the things you do well - play more Claude Debussy.
Second, #WBGO - when some jazz musician decides to jazz up some Christmas music, it's usually to generate revenue and not artistry. The best of this genre is mediocre. The best holiday present is to play the good stuff instead.
