Welcome back to an all-new season of Discologist! 

New beginnings can be exciting and full of surprises, but one thing you can always count on is that if we’re kicking off a new season of Discologist, we’re talking about one of legendary saxophonist Sonny Stitt’s albums. 

This time we’re digging into Never Can Say Goodbye, Stitt’s 1975 release that featured covers of some timely “hits” (“The Way We Were” and “Theme from The Godfather 2”) but still managed to branch out into some surprising territory with influences ranging from Blaxploitation style funk to Brazilian folk working their way into the mix. 

Before that though, Eduardo and Kevin are talking a little shop, discussing the potential impact that artificial intelligence may have on the arts community and sharing new-to-us music that love from Brad Allen Williams, and Milwaukee’s The Beat Index.
