Radio Mecha - Music Box: Jazz Here I am, on the Radio Mecha, playing some more of that rough jazz, from 1972 until a little while later. First, the Peter Brotzmann Octet's 'Machine Gun.' Please listen, if you're so inclined.

Oops. Actually, the Brotzmann song is from 1968. This song, Sun Ra and his Arkestra doing 'Sea of Sounds,' is from 1972.

I am reclined. And inclined. This is splendid, thanks.

Air (not to be confused with the French electronic artists--this is the jazz trio with Fred Hopkins, Steve McCall and Henry Threadgill, who might be my favorite composer) - Release
The Platters - Goodnight Sweetheart Goodnight

There was a lot going on in jazz during 1972 and 1973. Thanks for listening, I hope to see you soon, and goodnight.
