    2026.01.05 Jay Rodriguez on Jim Pepper - 3 of 3

    Meet me at Edge City.  Isn't that place where worlds collide the only one where new ideas are ever generated?  Saxophonist Jim Pepper knew all about these cultural collisions. His band Free Spirits was arguably the first to combine rock and jazz elements, and his oft-covered song Witchitai-To is perhaps the only hit to feature an authentic Native American chant in the history of the Billboard pop charts (we sure can't think of another one; can you?).  Yes, this man changed the world, at least twice!   This spirit of discovery and of sharing culture is what this episode of Deep Focus is all about.  Fellow multi-reedman Jay Rodriguez knows.  You know him as a founding member of Groove Collective, but this three-time Grammy nominee has also played with everyone from Prince to Stevie Wonder, Celia Cruz to Gil Evans.  He's one of the cats.    Jay Rodriguez joins host Mitch Goldman in the studios of WKCR to explore the soul and the legacy of Jim Pepper through live, unreleased recordings from the archives.  Deep Focus this Monday (Jan 5) from 6p to 9p NYC time on WKCR 89.9FM, WKCR-HD, or wkcr.org.   Or join us when it goes up on the Deep Focus podcast on your favorite podcasting app or at https://mitchgoldman.podbean.com/.  Subscribe right now to get notifications when new episodes are posted.  Just like WKCR, it's ad-free, all free, totally non-commercial.  We won't even ask for your contact info.   Learn more about Deep Focus at https://mitchgoldman.com/about-deep-focus/ or join us on Instagram @deep_focus_podcast.   Photo credit: publishing info not available.   #WKCR #DeepFocus #JimPepper #JayRodriguez #GrooveCollective #JazzRadio #JazzPodcast #JazzInterview #MitchGoldman   Deep Focus is a production of Small Media Large.

    2025.12.22 Will Calhoun on Jack DeJohnette - 3 of 3

    Plate tectonics, this idea that the very surface of the earth is not an unyielding solid, but a set of independent segments in a constant state of flow, was not always accepted as truth.  It was only developed in 1967, but once geophysicists saw how accurately it described familiar phenomena, there was no going back.     At the exact same time, Jack DeJohnette was emerging as a new force on drums.  His percussive vigor and complexity were profoundly unsettling to those who relied on the familiar swing beats of the music of previous decades.  But it was a new time; there were new issues to address.  There was no going back.     Had Jack DeJohnette done only that, it would have made him at least a minor legend among the cognoscenti. But the fact that he had a long, fruitful career-- leading many bands, composing, collaborating, bringing younger musicians along-- made him something much, much more.     Will Calhoun is one of those younger musicians.  A storied drummer, as DeJohnette was, Calhoun is best known for driving the band Living Colour, but his curiosity and range of exploration know no bounds.  Let's hear about the doors and windows that DeJohnette opened for him, with freshly unearthed live recordings from the WKCR archives.     This Monday (12/22) from 6p to 9p NYC time on WKCR 89.9FM, WKCR-HD, or wkcr.org.   Or join us when it goes up on the Deep Focus podcast on your favorite podcasting app or at https://mitchgoldman.podbean.com/.  Subscribe right now to get notifications when new episodes are posted.  Just like WKCR, it's ad-free, all free, totally non-commercial.  We won't even ask for your contact info.   Learn more about Deep Focus at https://mitchgoldman.com/about-deep-focus/ or join us on Instagram @deep_focus_podcast.   Photo credit: Jack DeJohnette by Isio Saba - Personal archive photo via jackdejohnette.com. #WKCR #DeepFocus #JackDeJohnette #WillCalhoun #LivingColour #JazzRadio #JazzPodcast #JazzInterview #MitchGoldman   Deep Focus is a production of Small Media Large.

    2025.11.24 Henry Threadgill on Ahmad Jamal - 3 of 3

    Listen to Henry Threadgill's music.  What a phantasmagoria of splendors and esoterica must animate his mind!  Don't you just want to go to that place?  Maybe for a night out on the town?  Or a picnic in The Secret Garden?  Aren't you curious about where his inspiration comes from?  You could read his autobiography, Easily Slip Into Another World: A Life in Music (in fact, we recommend you do), but why don't you spend some time with Henry, listening to music that he loves?     This Monday (11/24), for Mitch Goldman's Deep Focus, Henry Threadgill has chosen the music of Ahmad Jamal.  Can Mitch find live, unreleased recordings of Ahmad Jamal in the WKCR archives that even his greatest fans have never heard?  He hasn't failed us yet, but this one's a tall order.     Find out Monday from 6p to 9p NYC time on WKCR 89.9FM, WKCR-HD, or wkcr.org.   Or join us when it goes up on the Deep Focus podcast on your favorite podcasting app or at https://mitchgoldman.podbean.com/.  Subscribe right now to get notifications when new episodes are posted.  Just like WKCR, it's ad-free, all free, totally non-commercial.  We won't even ask for your contact info.   Learn more about Deep Focus at https://mitchgoldman.com/about-deep-focus/ or join us on Instagram @deep_focus_podcast.   Photo credit: Henry Threadgill - photo by Alan Nahigian.
