Chris Potter – I’m Talkin’ Jazz 18 Dec

Ron Lee | December 12th, 2011

Chris Cortez will be chatting with Chris Potter. Chris has been on tour with McCoy Tyner and is currently playing with his trio in NY.

From his bio:

A world-class soloist, accomplished composer and formidable bandleader, saxophonist Chris Potter has emerged as a leading light of his generation. Down Beat called him “One of the most studied (and copied) saxophonists on the planet” while Jazz Times identified him as “a figure of international renown.” Jazz sax elder statesman Dave Liebman called him simply, “one of the best musicians around,” a sentiment shared by the readers of Down Beat in voting him second only to tenor sax great Sonny Rollins in the magazine’s 2008 Readers Poll.

    I’m listening to this great interview and the terrific music that Chris chose as I prepare to head out to finish Christmas gift buying in chilly Baltimore! I’m so glad I can take the show along on my iPhone! Merry Christmas to the two Chrises–may Kris Kringle bring you many gifts!
