Playlist for this week's show; included a bit of a Bernard Primeau retrospective, some folks on another music list I subscribe to were very curious about the Steve Lacy 1954 'Progressive Dixieland' recordings so I did about an hour of early rare Steve Lacy, I ended up typing in most of the liner notes by Francis Davis and Steve Lacy - I can post them here if there's any interest.

Nods to upcoming gigs by Houle/Leandre/Strid (tonight), Bruce Cockburn (ditto), David Braid/Mike Murley (Wednesday), Lee Scratch Perry and the benefit for the Linton Garner Scholarship Fund at the Cellar on Sunday, thanks ... N
