Episode Notes

It’s Juno weekend and we’ll be Live on the Juno Couch on Sunday BUT FIRST, it’s the Stew on Saturday.

THE SHOW

We’ll salute the brilliance of David Lindley and Wayne Shorter.

The first-hour donor suggestion was “curate as you see fit,  maybe keep it bluesy and work in a few live tracks”

Great idea.

The bluesy tracks are Shakura S’Aida, Weather Report, Marc Jordan, and Amy Sky,

Live tracks from Los Lobos, Elton John, David Lindley, and Jackson Browne.

New music from Van Morrison, Gord Downie and Bob Rock, Jenn Grant, and Amy Milan, Peach and Quiet, Dan Mangan, Wood bros, John Fogerty, Tami Neilson, Cat Stevens, and Ron Sexsmith.

Remembering David Lindley and Wayne Shorter through Weather Report, Steely Dan, Linda Ronstadt, Joni Mitchell, and Don Henley.

Wayne Shorter was a star in the jazz world. Playing with Miles Davis, Art Blakey, and the Jazz Messengers, Weather Report. He also felt comfortable enough to join other artists as a sideman. Wayne and Joni Mitchell were best friends, Steely Dan’s Aja Album for one, and Don Henley’s Grammy-winning The end of the Innocence.

David Lindley was the sideman’s sideman. He could play anything with strings and had the ability to cover what needed to be done, so that others playing with him had the creative freedom to improvise. He was also blessed with a killer dry wit.

Yes,  we’ll play Jackson Browne and David working together but Running on Empty will be a live track from a tour of Spain and the album Love is Strange.

Also, David Lindley with Ry Cooder from Bop ‘til you Drop and Linda Ronstadt and Heart Like a Wheel.
