Virtuosic Journeys with Herbie Hancock and Rhonda Vincent

Jazz pianist Herbie Hancock has made a career of being a musical explorer, playing across genres from soul and funk to folk and rock and breaking down musical barriers along the way. Then we visit with mandolin virtuoso Rhonda Vincent, who shares tales of traveling with the family bluegrass band and now playing at the Grand Ol Opry with her own band, the Rage. Plus music from Joni Mitchell, Billie Holiday, Hugh Masekela and Waylon Jennings.

SATURDAY NIGHT & SUNDAY MORNING

November 24th, 2004

Visit with Arkansas rockabilly hero Sleepy LaBeef, the human jukebox. Sleepy knows several thousand of songs by heart, but he still loves the Southern gospel numbers of his youth. And we’ll talk with gospel singer and scholar Horace Boyer about the roots of the music.
