We've got some creative modern jazz in this week's podcast. Shirantha Beddage's low and slow baritone and Vittorio Mezza's creative piano and arrangements highlight this show. Those are followed by an extended big band arrangement from Jason Lindner and Lovano's Us Five quintet. The podcast concludes with a Metheny/Coleman collaboration, for a progressive free jazz show.
