That's not my name, my name is Reuben Jackson, the collection by Heads of State is 4 and 1 and we heard Charlie Parker's moose the mooch. I mentioned Howard Johnson at the top of the hour, you know, telling you what was going down in this particular hour. A tuba player who worked with the band on the last Waltz recording, I worked with Gil Evans, he worked with a number of people. This is a new collection featuring his ensemble known as Gravity, Howard Johnson and Gravity. The collection is called Testimony and what we're going to hear is a piece called Working Hard for the Joneses.

Now we're not talking about keeping up with the Joneses, we're talking about working for the Joneses. When you got a Jones you got a gear, it's going to affect the way you live. Joneses wake me in the morning, tell me get up out of bed, whiskey when I drink y'all sugar to be fed, working hard for the Joneses. Love Joneses giving me the blues, I been working for the Joneses, doing things I saw I'd never do. I had a deal with my conscience, I'm in debt over my head debt, shooting up in a different cell. I'm working hard on my debt, working hard for the Joneses. Working hard for money, when you worked for the Joneses, seemed like everything got along. Working hard for the Joneses, working hard for the Joneses.

Love Joneses giving me the blues, I been working for the Joneses, doing things I saw I'd never do. Working hard for the Joneses, working hard for the Joneses, working hard for the Joneses. Working hard for the Joneses, working hard for the Joneses. Working hard for the Joneses, working hard for the Joneses, working hard for the Joneses.

Working hard for the Joneses, working hard for the Joneses, working hard for the Joneses. Working hard for the Joneses, working hard for the Joneses, working hard for the Joneses. Working hard for the Joneses, working hard for the Joneses, working hard for the Joneses.

Working hard for the Joneses, working hard for the Joneses. Working hard to share this music with you and we're going to keep going till 11O. Now we're going to return to the newest by Mr. Joey D.Franchesco organ keyboards. Mr. Joey D.Franchesco organ keyboards, trumpet Jason Brown on drums, Troy Roberts on Tender and soprano saxophone and Dan Wilson on guitar, the standard so near so far.

You can listen at vpr.net and on your smartphone. Speaking of new, back to Jerry Gibbs and thrash your people from weather or not W-E-A-T-H-E-R or not weather is in. How's the weather? Referring to, of course, the seminal jazz rock ensemble weather report, this track occurred, was recorded, well it occurred too, but originally heard on 1977's heavy weather, Joseph Ovenos Ballad, a remark you made.

Jerry Gibbs and the thrash your people here in our three of Friday night jazz on VPR from weather

or not and we listen to the ballad written by keyboardist co-founder of weather report Joseph Ovenos. It is entitled a remark you made. Next, another new release by vocalist Sandy Cresman. This is entitled Entrez Amigos and the piece dedicated to a really, just an incredibly prolific composer, a guy who plays like 99,000, eight zillion and 42 instruments. Mr. Hermeto Pasquale, this piece is Para Hermeto or For Hermeto. For Hermeto or For Hermeto or For Hermeto or For Hermeto.

Thank you very much. Thank you very much. Thank you.

Thank you very much. Thank you very much. Thank you very much.

Thank you very much and many applause to get that kick now for this Easter or Christmas. For our fun. We hope you enjoyed it. Thanks to the spirit Mr. Algerow, this recording taken from his All Fly Home Collection and an original by Algerow Brightman Sonny Babe. This is the best room game.

It's such a show, so it's a sightly way. The freedom rules that gonna be lovers forever. When the road gets rough, baby, bring them a brighter day. Now a little later, don't move in the way. But you can see it for ever. It's a pack and bed like a fair stair. It's an insony and cloudy. We'll never go belly, belly, belly, when I pay. But you can see it for ever and ever. Oh, go on, just stand there. Baby, when you're here, dance into me. You're all kind of wearable. Now when you get there, be bright and sun. Run it babe. I'm so shy. I'm so shy, so I'm so shy. You're all kind of wearable. I'm so shy, so I'm so shy. I'm so shy, so I'm so shy.

But you can see it for ever and ever. I'm so shy, so I'm so shy. And you can see it for ever. It's a pack and bed like a fair stair. Oh, wow.

Oh, wow. Oh, wow. Oh, wow. Oh, wow. Oh, wow. The late Grey Dalger Row here in our three of Friday night jazz on VPR was Ruben Jackson from All Fly Home and Bright and Sunny Babe. By special request, more music by the tandem of Gil Scott Heron and Brian Jackson, this kind of a latter day effort by this tandem right before they split off for a number of years. They came together briefly before Gil Scott Heron's death. Gil Scott Heron did another studio effort entitled Spirits, but this collection is called 1980 and it's interesting, you know, I got a couple of emails, both of which asked for music from this collection. And I'd been thinking about Gil Scott Heron's work as a musician. He was also, of course, a novelist and poet.

And the influence of societal changes on music and advice versus something Gil Scott Heron consistently explored. So with that in mind and with the requested mind, again, from 1980 Gil Scott Heron and Brian Jackson, this composition is entitled Shahmat. The Shah is dead. Checkmate. I am the voice you're saying. Remembering things that I told me yesterday. My name is put you down. I am inside your frame. We saw the devils had to make them go away. My name is put you down. You might reject my claim, but I expect that you won't

fear it from the nose. My name is put you down. I was just a single. And with a double record, now I have a need to fall. Take it to the streets. Tell everybody you meet. Whatever you do, whatever you feel, the one drum beat. Put it in the air. Spit it everywhere. Do whatever you do, whatever you know, you got to be there. Show my two only. Take it out the symbol. Show my two clothes fit. Who does it resemble? My name is put you down. If you recall the change, then you can dig in. We've been put into a trance. My name is put you down. I am inside of you. I've been here ever since today. You learned to stand. My name is put you down. I'm a name.

Born on the wings of strain. I was just a justice that had a long been overdue. My name is put you down. But we already knew. And now the clouds are winning. How come interview? Show my two only. Take it to the streets. Tell everybody you meet. Do whatever you do, whatever you feel, the one drum beat. Put it in the air. Spit it everywhere. Do whatever you do, whatever you know. You got to be there. Show my two only. Take it out the symbol. Show my two clothes fit. Who does it resemble? My name is put you down. I am the voice the same. Remembering things that I told me yesterday. My name is put you down. I am inside your frame. We saw the doubles had to make them go away. Take it to the streets. Tell everybody you meet.

Do whatever you do, whatever you feel, the one drum beat. Put it in the air. Spit it everywhere. Do whatever you do, whatever you know. You got to be there. Show my two only. Take it out the symbol. Show my two clothes fit. Who does it resemble? Show my two only. Take it out the symbol. Show my two clothes fit. Who does it resemble? Show my two only. Take it out the symbol. Show my two clothes fit. Who does it resemble? Show my two only. Take it out the symbol. Sure my two clothes fit, Who does it resemble? Show my two clothes fit. Show my two clothes fit. Show my two clothes fit. show my two clothes fit. Show my two clothes fit. Show my two clothes fit.

Show my two clothes fit. Show my two clothes fit. Show my two clothes fit. Show my two clothes fit. Show my two clothes fit. Show my two clothes fit. Show my two clothes fit. Show my two clothes fit. Gil Scott Heron and Brian Jackson here in our three of Friday night jazz. On Vermont Public Radio, Ruben Jackson from 1980 and we heard Shamat or the Shah is dead. Slash checkmate. Next, a return to the newest by saxophonist Noah Preminger. It's called Meditations on Freedom. Earlier tonight we heard Larry Couriel's reading of George Harrison something.
