Avant-retro or Retro-avant? Part I [Mondo Jazz 103-1]
b'Rigid categories are not what music should be about. This week we focus on music that some may file under "retro" but is performed by musicians that are often labelled "avant", it may not sound exactly how Count Basie and the Kansas City 7 would have played, but hey... it\'s 2020 and it debunks the notion that musicians that may like it skronky don\'t know how to swing. Case in point: Steven Bernstein whose playing and arranging is the common thread through this week\'s show.\\nHappy listening!\\nPhoto credit: Roberto Cifarelli\\nThe playlist features Steven Bernstein\'s Millennial Territory Orchestra, Ghost Train Orchestra, The Lounge Lizards, Roy Nathanson, Alban Darche\'s l\'OrphiCube, Octurn, Django Bates, Baikida Carroll, Trio Grande, Houdini\'s Cage, Max Nagl, and the Kansas City Band.\\nDetailed playlist at: https://spinitron.com/RFB/pl/10322837/Mondo-Jazz (up to Kansas City Band)'
