A lot of Roy Ayers this afternoon, to mark the passing of the great vibraphonist and band leader — and, sadly, of several other luminaries including r’n’b saxophonist Gene Barge (aka Daddy G, the template for Clarence Clemons), David Johansen (featuring a first-ever appearance on any Jazz show anywhere by the New York Dolls!), and of course jazz, soul and pop singer Roberta Flack.  

Two special guests also join Blind Mango in the studio this afternoon: 

Ben Fernandez plays his diminutive keyboard and talks about his many upcoming projects  (including Bollywood and Jazz) and ongoing play-with-music 'a mixtape for maladies' at ASB Waterfront Theatre, every day until March 23rd. 

And Frances swings by to announce the Jazz GigGuide live, and stays to discuss future events and shared jazz memories.

Hey there be-boppers. Blind Mango Chutney in the chair for a cracking 95bFM Jazz Show showcasing hard bop, be-bop, acoustic jazz, and even (gasp!) yacht rock.

Band leader and drummer Taylor Griffin drops in the studio on his way to play Music in Parks at the Auckland Domain band rotunda, to talk about inspiration, influences and recent projects—including his new EP ‘In Green’ (featuring Nathan Haines). And Blind Mango finishes up (perhaps?) his stories about the Dave Pike Set.

And of course don’t miss the Gig Guide, for all your upcoming jazz news and grooves around town.

Blind Mango Chutney is your guide through another entertaining tour through jazz fast, slow, bopping and swinging—with special note of the 50th anniversary of Keith Jarrett's classic 'Koln Concert'.

His first guest is young South African jazzer Warren Duncan, talking about his work at the Auckland Uni jazz school, and his new album ‘The Jazz Estate.’

And he has a long chat with promoter Nathan Graves ahead of upcoming gigging at Aotea Square’s 2-day Something Else Festival, including a conversation about mutual pianistic favourites local Joe Kaptein and (or course) the classic ECM artist Keith Jarrett.
