Conference of the Birds, 2008-11-11

Oddly, while I didn’t feel like this week’s show had much of a plan or much continuity, I got a lot of good feedback, including a couple of phone calls.  Listeners reported enjoying the Yamamoto/Drake duet (“Circular Movement”) and the Dave Douglas track (“The Real Roscoe”).
