Continuing the American season, Jazz on 3 presents a concert by drummer Paul Motian 's trio, featuring Bill Frisell on guitar and Joe Lovano on saxophone, recorded at London's Barbican Centre earlier this year.
Motian began his career in mid-fifties New York and played extensively with Bill Evans and Paul Bley in the late fifties and early sixties. Frequently associated with bassist Charlie
Haden and pianist Keith Jarrett , he has led his own groups since 1977. Also tonight, writer and photographer Val Wilmer remembers the important musicians among the passengers on the Empire Windrush 50 years ago.
