Brian Jackson's 4/4
The great flautist, piano player and composer selects records dear to him all week
βRound Midnight is presented by award-winning saxophonist Soweto Kinch. This weekday late-night show celebrates the thriving UK jazz scene and spotlights the best new music alongside incredible acts from past decades.
Brian Jackson is a flautist, singer and piano player who began his career in the early 70s - writing with longtime collaborator Gil Scott-Heron and leading The Midnight Band, which soundtracked the majority of Gil's famous albums. Since releasing his first solo record in over two decades in 2022, he has been a frequent fixture at music festivals around the world - and he recorded his 4/4 backstage at We Out Here this summer.
Brian kicks off a week of picking gems from his record collection, with a classic by John Coltrane.
Plus, there's music from Lophae, Ezra Collective, Lindsay Cooper, Babo Moreno and Tara Lily.
