June 9 we had an up close and personal interview on Wanda’s Picks Radio with the great pianist, George Cables. He was at Yoshi’s in San Francisco with his friends, Bobby Hutcherson and Charlie Haden and is on to New York for a tribute to Freddie Hubbard later this week. Listen any time at http://www.blogtalkradio.com/Wandas-Picks/2009/06/09/Wandas-Picks-Special. You will not be disappointed.
