Blind Mango Chutney takes you on a journey through the jazz universe.
Joining him in the studio this week is evergreen vocalist local legend Linn Lorkin, telling stories and painting colours from a whole lifetime in music—and *singing* her newest book: Linn Lorkin’s Song Book, lyrics referencing life from Grey Lynn to K Rd.
DJ Sassy pops in to fix microphones and deliver the Gig Guide and general sunniness.
And Blind Mango continues the tribute to Frank Gibson Jr., because there’s so much to play, and to others to whom the Grim Reaper has been unkind this week: Sly Stone, who needs no introduction, and trumpeter Al Foster, best known for his work with Miles Davis.
The 95bFM Jazz Show is sponsored by San Ray on Ponsonby Rd, eulogised earlier by Linn Lorkin
Today on your bFM Breakfast: The sun returns for another glorious morning in the bFM studios; a round of Second Guessing gets your brain moving; and tunes galore to help you through the back-to-work-blues.
The last live show (from the studio) for a while with Kirk flying solo on the funk ship enterprise. 1st hour mellow then gradually picked up the tempo until the end. Now into worldwide lock down. Stay safe out there.
