Episode Details

We've made it nine years - four years more than Ziggy Stardust promised us, thank you very much - and to celebrate we're once again discussing ensembles the numerical size of which matches our anniversary.   That means, my friends, nonets, and of course we'll start with the most famous jazz nonet of all, that one that birthed a hundred West-Coast groups.  Miles Davis – BIRTH OF THE COOL; Lee Konitz – NONET; Andrew Hill – PASSING SHIPS; Rabih Abou-Khalil – THE SULTAN’S PICNIC.
