I catch my breath this week while
WDNA offers a rebroadcast of a piece from the fall,
"I Was A Teenage Jazz Curmudgeon," an apology of sorts to Kenny G. What do I need to apologize for? There was this blog entry from several years ago,
"Why Kenny G Sucks," that's probably a good place to start, as well as some more crankiness about the idea of authenticity. A
long-winded audio review of Charlie Parr's excellent album Rooster should do the trick. But much of my earlier, grumpier thinking about music and criticism has arrived at
a point of balance, brought about by the always-reliable
Wynton Marsalis. Tune in today at 11:05 am on 88.9 FM WDNA in South Florida or online at
wdna.org.
