'Listen To The News'

"The man of the gun comes shot up the son and the girl and the child and the mother, but the child is the son and the son is the child and the child is the son of the father and the passage of time just follows the line of the lore of the land and the dreamin" 

"Listen to the news talking about the blues of people. So look for the day when the sun shines its rays, cause I know that a new day is dawning and dawning will come when the people as one shall rise to the light of the morning."

Burt's Bees ~ Music from Nature by Diego Stocco

"To celebrate Earth Day, we collaborated with composer Diego Stocco to create an all-natural musical experience. All the sounds you hear in this piece were created real-time using instruments provided by Mother Nature herself. The same ingredients that are instrumental in making the Burt's Bees products you love to love."

Chet Atkins & Jethro Burns play "Gallopin' Guitar" and "Blackbird"

"This treasure brought to our attention by friend and rhythm guitar virtuoso,John Parrot: brothers-in-law, mandolin swing innovator Jethro Burns and master finger-style picker Chet Atkins featured in a delightful medley of "Gallopin' guitar' and "Bye Bye Blackbird." Notice in the first song, the spry premier jazz mandolinist Don Stiernberg in a supportive role and John himself in the very back corner barking out the backbeat. Also, the cat playing the 6-string Fender bass is Neil Seroka (also a great jazz guitarist and personal friend of Don's.)" http://jazzmando.com

The Hedonist - Blue Note Badness

"It kicks off with a little Blue Note tribute, with tracks from Lee Morgan, Sonny Clark, Joe Henderson and Andrew Hill before I dig out a rare groove from Rodney Jones.

Things are brought up to date with a new single from the Colman Brothers before I bring you a fantastic version of "Stolen Moments" from Eddie "Lockjaw" Davis.

Finally, Build An Ark bring proceedings to an end with a short track from their new album (more of which I'm sure to bring you later).
Featuring tracks by Andrew Hill, Love, Joe Henderson, Rodney Jones, Lee Morgan and more."
