Sonny & Miles & more on The Audio Ecotone – May 29, 2026

Fri, 05/29/2026 - 10:03am | Eddy Owt

rollins_sax_colossus.jpg

This week we lost one of the last giants from the "classic" age of jazz. Sonny Rollins passed at the age of 95 on May 25, one day prior to Miles Davis' 100th birthday. Rollins not only helped define the sound of jazz tenor saxophone on such classic albums as Saxophone Colossus, Freedom Suite, and The Bridge, but he also continued to evolve and perform up into his eighties. On this week's show, we highlight some of his classic tracks, pay tribute to Miles' 100th, and spotlight some new music and upcoming shows this weekend. Listen live at 3 p.m. PT on 95.7FM locally or kdrt.org worldwide.

Replays Sunday at 4 p.m. and Thursday 10 a.m.

Dr. Gabi Kirk explains the U.S. soldiers at the Arboretum, on Hello Davis!, May 27, 2026

Wed, 05/27/2026 - 5:30pm | Pieter Pastoor

hello-davis.png

Today on Hello Davis!, Dr. Gabi Kirk talks with David Abramson about our beloved Arboretum in Davis and its militarism in the past.

The Militarized Campus Arboretum research and teaching project explores the histories of everyday militarism hidden in plain sight at the University of California, Davis. From her website: "Our project aims to teach UC Davis campus affiliates, Davis community members, and visitors about the multiple militarized legacies of UC Davis and the land grant university as a whole. The research project was started to explore the use of UC Davis campus facilities as a training school for the Western Signal Corps School during World War II (1943-1944), but has expanded to analyze how U.S. imperialism overseas is intimately linked to domestic policing and settler colonialism."
