Doug Ramsey on Jazz and other matters...

Listening Alert: Bren Plummer Live

Short notice: I’ve learned that Seattle bassist Bren Plummer will do a live broadcast today with his quintet. At 12:15 pm PST, they will play music from Plummer’s album Moldy Figs. The band will include the prominent trumpeter Jay Thomas, vibraphonist Susan Pascal, alto saxophonist Stuart MacDonald, gutarist Frank Seeberger and drummer D’Vonne Lewis. Full disclosure: I’m recommending it because I listened to the album extensively when I was writing its liner notes. If the quality of the music in today’s broadcast is up to that of the CD, it’s more than worth a listen.

Plummer sends a note: “In case you miss it, video will be taken and archived on the KNKX website.” This is a link to the KNKX site.
