Café The Zen –
Thursday, July 23, 2009 @ 9:00-10:00 pm [20-0932]
Amsterdam, NL.
Finally! I met Henk Botwinik at Larry Hayden’s new headquarters at Café The Zen in the east and the three of us teamed up to make this commemorative episode of our radio show—just like old times. Tonight we celebrated the moon landing of 40 years ago with music from Roland Kirk with the Roy Haynes Quartet, Chuck Berry, Clarence “Bon Ton” Garlow, Li’l Bob & the Lollipops, the Li’l Rascals Brass Band, Isaac Hayes, Muddy Waters, Marvin Gaye, Archie Shepp, Thelonious Monk, and Jr. Walker & the All Stars. We had a ball getting back together and previewing the relaunch of Radio Free Amsterdam, our redesigned website and the projected podcast of the last 30 programs in this series (#244-273), one a day for the next month. I’ve been making the shows but they haven’t been posted yet, so with Larry’s help we’ll get them into play, and Henk is already streaming them on the Radio Free Amsterdam “live” stream. In the immortal words of Jr. Walker: Right On Brothers & Sisters!
