Luke Reynolds joins us to talk about his deeply intriguing new album ‘After the Flood,’ and how it advances his well-respected career.

You know him from his work with Madeleine Peyroux, the Dukes of September and Steely Dan. Let’s dig into Jon Herington’s solo career.

Obert Davis and the Chicago Jazz Philharmonic manage to be faithful to Miles Davis’ original ‘Sketches of Spain,’ yet take it to new heights.

“Where’s Mantis Evar,” originally by Monkey House, combines elements of the Breithaupt Brothers’ writing modis operandi in a rock setting.

Walter Becker aficiando Preston Frazier chooses his five favorite songs by the Steely Dan co-leader.

With Billy Childs’ ‘Map to the Treasure: Reimaging Laura Nyro,’ it looks like my best albums of 2014 list just got longer.

With ‘Sound Mirror,’ Syd Arthur proves more than capable of harnessing the energy of their live show in a studio setting.

Maybe “Wet Side Story,” played during the 1996 tour, should go on Steely Dan’s next album, too.

Luke Reynolds returns with a funky Memphis shuffle boasting both a hint of J.J. Cale and a dash of Mark Knopfler.

Antoine Fafard’s ‘Ad Perpetuum’ is a wonderfully diverse piece of jazz-fusion art.
