This week's episode is about the pianist and composer Herbie Nichols.  I first learned of Nichols' music in a book called Four Lives in the Bebop Business by A.B. Spellman, an incredible book that has sections on Nichols, Cecil Taylor, Jackie McLean, and Ornette Coleman.  Get a copy here: https://www.powells.com/book/-9780879100421 Playlist for the episode here: https://wednesdaynightprayermeeting.wordpress.com/2020/05/07/herbie-nichols-playlist-wednesday-night-prayer-meeting-jazz-podcast/ Questions?
