2026.02.16 Steve Slagle on Charlie Haden - 3 of 3

The music, the people playing it, and the audience are all in a state of total oneness. It's a spontaneous improvisation as delicate as an eggshell. You're almost afraid to breathe lest this moment dissolve, and we are all dropped back to the cold earth. Then you open your eyes to see that the bassist is Charlie Haden, and you know that this moment will not end until its time has come, because Charlie Haden practically discovered this sense of the sublime in music for us. He seems to create it at will. Steve Slagle knows this experience well. He played in Charlie Haden's Liberation Music Orchestra. Steve searches the WKCR archives for live, unreleased recordings of Charlie Haden with host Mitch Goldman, this Monday (2/2) on Deep Focus. Tune in Monday (Feb 2) from 6p to 9p NYC time on WKCR 89.9FM, WKCR-HD, or wkcr.org.
