Kamasi Washington

Ahead of his Glastonbury set, American saxophonist, composer and producer Kamasi Washington shares his 'First, Last and Everything', plus Stuart presents a feast of music and chat

Stuart Maconie presents a feast of great music and chat for weekend breakfast with a Glastonbury flavour.

Today, ahead of his performance at Glastonbury Festival, American saxophonist, composer and producer Kamasi Washington shares his 'First, Last and Everything' - that’s the first record he bought, the most recent one he's been enjoying and the record that means 'everything' to him. He shares memories from his childhood in South Central L.A., from saving up to buy his first album, to riding the bus home listening to John Coltrane on his discman.

Also on the show, another 'Breakfast Blend' - three tracks that make a great sonic blend - plus another installment of Sunday Glove Songs.

You can take part in The Chain, choosing a track for our world-famous list of interconnected songs, as it approaches number 8000!

Plus a finely balanced blend of new and old music, setting you up for a Sunday.
