Two jazz interviews

A very long print interview with controversial jazz critic Stanley Crouch by pianist Ethan Iverson of the controversial jazz combo Bad Plus. Definitely worth reading and makes me want to read Crouch's new book of jazz criticism, Considering Genius. (hat tip: Dave Adler of Lerterland.) One big suprise is that Crouch is a big fan of the Bad Plus.

This Sunday (March 18), Barry Gaston of KMUW-FM (89.1) will be interviewing Sonny Rollins on his Moonglow program, 8-10 PM. I don't think there's a on-line broadcast, so if you're outside the Wichita area, you're out of luck.
