Episode notes
This month we pay homage in memory of Jazz Legend, Pianist Ahmad Jamal. This interview at the Newport Jazz Festival in 2010 was my very first interview with a major artist! It was loads of fun to meet someone I had listened to and admired since a teen. In part 1 he talks about his latest CD"A Quite Time" and use of his own compositions.
