"He sucked all the air out of the room and turned it back into this wonderful... fragrance." That's Ronald Shannon Jackson talking about Albert Ayler, his spiritual avatar. Leave aside the unrivaled, prodigious drumming; the utterly singular style of bandleading; the absolutely distinctive composing. Like Ayler before him, Ronald Shannon Jackson's music brought a spiritual force. It could change the way the world looked-- yes, the way it smelled and tasted and felt. Shannon Jackson died on Saturday October 19, 2013. Two days later WKCR presented a memorial broadcast that included 2 of his closest friends and collaborators: saxophonist/flutist Eric Person and manager Roger Cramer, with nearly unheard rarities from the WKCR archives. This episode of Deep Focus is from the first of 4 consecutive broadcasts on Ronald Shannon Jackson. #WKCR #DeepFocus #MitchGoldman #RonaldShannonJackson #EricPerson #RogerCramer #AlbertAyler #JazzRadio #JazzInterview #JazzPodcast #OrnetteColeman Photo credit: no information available.
