Once per year, I go sifting through the music library metadata for “thanks,” “gratitude,” “turkey,” “biscuits” and so on. That’s the first step in preparing the annual TSS Thanksgiving Special. You’ll hear Ruthie Foster, Injury Reserve, India Arie, Sam & Dave, Sidewalk Chalk, and other expectedz, and maybe some surprises.
Also,
- New music from Pittsburgh’s Joshua Carns, South Africa’s Mthunzi Mvubu, Jazz Is Dead’s Garrett Saracho
- Classic Badu, The Valentinos, Otis Clay; obscure Hammer
- Con Funk Shun and Alexander O’Neal music, in anticipation of upcoming August Wilson performances and TSS interviews.
Remember to check out the archives, including the recent Minnie Riperton tribute!
