David Bassin hosts an eclectic two-hour mix of jazz, R&B, global grooves & abstract beats, broadcasting from San Francisco on KXSF 102.5FM/KXSF.FM, Tuesdays 10am-noon. Now in its 26th year, FreeFall is currently heard in 88 countries.

This program has been edited from the original broadcast.

In addition to new music from Ben Wendel, Al Green, Shabaka, MF Robots, Joel Ross, Flea, Jussi Lampela and others, we began a look back 50 years to 1976, for some of the amazing sounds that were being created at that time. Jazz-fusion and the more mellow ECM label was beginning to blossom, while soul and blues were both getting funkier. Tune in to the rewind and have a taste of things to come!
