BASE FOR YOUR FACE! Public Enemy released ‘It Takes a Nation of Millions To Hold Us Back’ on June 28, 1988 and blew up everyone’s ideas of what hip-hop could be. They just released a NEW album on the anniversary - Black Sky over the Projects. We’ll be playing a bit of PE, but also new Australian and New Zealand Spiritual Jazz, funky library sounds, and MORE

Tonight! 7-8PM on your radio dial. In the spirit of giving people props while they are still busily recording, rather than another retrospective of people who have died, the focus of tonight's show is the ridiculously talented EMMA-JEAN THACKRAY who has just released her second album 'Weirdo' on Brownswood recordings after years of building on indie EPs. On this album she did *everything* herself other than a couple of small cameos. Incredible!

RIGHT NOW on edge radio 99.3, Sadly, the wonderful ANDY BEY has just passed. Every single time you hear his vocals on a track, they just radiate warmth and humanity. Starting out in a vocal trio with his sisters in the early 60s, he was featured on plenty of the great jazz albums of the late 60s/early 70s (Max Roach’s Members, Don’t Git Weary; Horace Silver’s United States of Mind trilogy; Mtume’s Alkebu-Lan; Stanley Clarke’s Children of Forever; Gary bartz’s NTU Troop albums) and his first album as a lead - 1974’s Experience and Judgement is a must have in every home. RIP

Sadly, another great has passed, this time, the great singer MAX ROMEO - from heart complications at age 80. He's been performing and recording steadily since he was 18. Kicked off the slackness reggae genre accidently, created political anthems and voiced some of the greatest Lee Scratch Perry singles. Check out EDGE RADIO 99.3 for an hour of Max Romeo from 7-8PM tonight!

TONIGHT! 7-8PM on edge radio 99.3, we're bringing you a JOE HENDERSON - Milestone years (1969-1975) special, partially triggered by the arrival of the new reissue of MULTIPLE today. I really don't know why Henderson's amazing run of records on Milestone haven't been reissued, because, as you'll hear tonight, they are all kozmigroovy!

7PM on your radio dial, we get to a musical tribute to the great ROY AYERS - vibraphonist extraordinaire who worked HARD from the hard bop era into soul jazz, funk, disco, rare groove, acid jazz (!), and hip hop. We'll be playing a full show of my favorite Roy Ayers grooves, but if you want to know more, there's a great interview between the man and Questlove right here:

The music community suffered a giant loss this week with the passing of Roy Ayers. In 2017, Roy returned to Electric Lady Studios to sit down with Questlove Supreme. Ahmir adds some reflections and stories about his experience with Roy, as this conversation provides extra insight into the Jazz-Fu...
