Jazz and Poetry

Jazz goes with poetry like peanut butter goes with jelly. We're going to celebrate that partnership with some words and music performed live in the studio. And we'll talk with David Amram, the musician who first collaborated with Jack Kerouac back in the 1950s.

Seacoast poet and musician Chris Elliott will join us in the studio with Larry Simon. Larry is organizing the 2007 JazzMouth festival in Portsmouth this weekend. Larry plays guitar and leads the band Groove Bacteria. Tonight he's joined by Cynthia Chatis on flute, Chris Stambaugh on bass and Mike Barrron on drums.
