Doug Ramsey on Jazz and other matters...

Reeves With Conley

A month ago, in the discussion of Good Night, And Good Luck, I included this item about Diane Reeves’ important contribution to the film’s success. Thanks to Rifftides reader Paul Conley of KXJZ in Sacramento for calling my attention to his interview with Ms. Reeves about her role in the movie.
Conley being Conley—a craftsman whose reports are those of a documentarian with a fine production touch—it is more than an interview. He knows how to let music help tell the story, as he has proved in a number of full-length programs, including this one, for NPR’s Jazz Profiles series. The Reeves piece is a representative sample of his work. To hear it, click here, then click on “Listen.”
