Introducing Riffs

Bruce Boyer has a new book out called "Riffs: Random Reflections on Jazz, Blues, and Early Rock." You can find it now in most major bookstores and online. It's a collection of essays Bruce has written about some of his favourite artists, including Jimmy Smith, Billie Holiday, Louis Armstrong, and many, many more. As a special treat, Bruce has recorded three of these essays, interspersed with the songs he's talking about. If you are listening to this on Spotify, they should be right there in the podcast playlist. If you're not on Spotify, you'll have to head over there to give them a listen.
