This afternoon on New Day Jazz, we celebrate the poetry of Ntozake Shange. As part of our celebration we will visit rare and unreleased recordings of Ms. Shange, including selections from the original Broadway cast recording of For Colored Girls Who Have Considered Suicide When the Rainbow Is Enuf. Along the way we will revisit many of the recordings that inspired Ms. Shange's poetry, including The Magic of Juju, by tenor saxophonist, composer Archie Shepp, as well as saxophonist Oliver Lake's original composition, dedicated to Ms. Shange, Zake.
