Max Roach - Wednesday Night Prayer Meeting Jazz Podcast

To make up for missing putting out an episode last week, I made an extra long episode this week about the incredible drummer Max Roach. Max Roach was at the forefront of jazz from the beginning his career in the 1940s to the end of his life, and played in a wide variety of styles.  This episode focuses mostly on his music in the late 50s and early 60s, with a little from before and after.

I'm a lover of jazz music and have spend the last 20 years digging through record crates at the record stores, yard sales, swap meets, etc, in the Los Angeles area, and want to share some of the great jazz I've discovered along the way. Most episodes are focused on a single jazz artist, some are focused on various jazz styles, to point others in the right direction when it comes to finding out about great jazz
