Composer and pianist Randy Weston began his career gigging with Eddie “Cleanhead” Vinson and Kenny... Dorham, and was voted New Star Pianist in a 1955 Downbeat poll. He spent several years in Morocco, and incorporated African musical forms and musicians in his recorded work. On this Piano Jazz, Weston returns to the program with host McPartland to perform “A Ballad for T.,” “Little Niles,” and “African Lady.”
