Breakdown: March 31st on KCRW

Solid show from this past week, losts of upcoming releases, almost all of which seem to be coming out April 6th, including Sharon Jones & the Dap Kings, Dr. Dog, Jonsi of Sigur Ros (Finally figured out the correct way to pronounce “Jonsi” in hour 3, after two or three different pronounciations throughout the show), Paul Weller, The Black Keys and James Murphy of LCD Soundsystem. Little mini-tribute to master teacher Jaime Escalante, the inspiration for the film Stand And Deliver and a major inspiration for me as a teacher, towards the end as well. On demand for a week until the next show comes along…
