Ornette Today, Bix Tomorrow

MARCH 9, 2009

Today on WKCR, Ornette Coleman birthday broadcast. Tomorrow Bix Beiderbecke.
Two days of back-to-back 24 hour listening to jazz genius from two eras.

 Ornette is still with us at 79, creating new music and challenging listeners.

Bix didn’t last long, but he left a lot of beautiful playing on some great records and some beautiful playing on some terrible records.
