Description

Boulder-based pianist Bob Schlesinger joined KGNU’s Kooter Jones to discuss his new album Falling from Earth, a seven-year project featuring jazz greats Eddie Gomez and Mike Stern. Funded in part by a Pathways to Jazz grant, the recording took place in New York and Boulder, blending original compositions, reimagined covers, and innovative studio work, including the 13-minute track Easy Off Ramp, assembled in the spirit of Miles Davis’ Bitches Brew. The album is available on digital download, CD, and audiophile vinyl, with an official release concert set for Thursday, August 14th at Dazzle in Denver’s Performing Arts Complex. (Interview: 8/7/25)
