NZ Music Month: Nathan Haines–‘The Poet’s Embrace

image

NZ reeds man Nathan Haines is already a jazz legend—especially now he’s increasingly playing more jazz and less dance music.  But until recently he still didn’t feel ready to record a “real jazz record,” an “acoustic” album—one recorded live to tape and without digital trickery, just the way the masters of jazz did in the old days.

The result was ‘The Poet’s Embrace,’ for which this clip is a taster.

We welcome thoughtful disagreement.
But we do (ir)regularly moderate comments -- and we *will* delete any with insulting or abusive language. Or if they're just inane or off topic. It’s okay to disagree, but pretend you’re having a drink in the living room with the person you’re disagreeing with. This includes me.
