KCCK’s Featured Album for September 2021

The KCCK Featured Album for September is “Songs From My Father” by Gerry Gibbs’ Thrasher Dream Trios. The drummer pays tribute to his 96-year-old father Terry Gibbs, one of the last living architects of bebop and innovators of the vibraphone, by delving into Terry’s vast discography. Gerry gathers the members of his various Thrasher Dream Trios for this endeavor, including Ron Carter, Kenny Barron, Christian McBride, Patrice Rushen, and Buster Williams, and features the last recorded performance of Chick Corea. The resulting two-disc set, “Songs from My Father” is on Whaling City Sound Records. Listen to a sample.
