Celebrating Time Out: Mike Richmond on Eugene Wright

Celebrating Time Out: Mike Richmond on Eugene Wright

April 21, 2011 Off By Jazz Online

In 2009, Dave Brubeck’s musical masterpiece Time Out turned 50 and on behalf of Legacy Recordings, I produced a podcast series celebrating this timeless work. Along with interviewing Dave Brubeck himself about the album, I also interviewed three additional musicians saxophonist David Sanborn, bassist Mike Richmond and drummer Bill Bruford to discuss the influential work of Time Out band members, Paul Desmond, Eugene Wright and Joe Morello. For reasons beyond my scope, this series was never released. Featured on this episode is bassist Mike Richmond who breaks down the genius of bassist Eugene Wright. – JV
