RoCM Playlist: 30 Aug 2025
This week we have a small playlist with some relatively long songs, hitting up Archie Shepp, Grachan Moncur III, Henry Grimes and Amina Claudine Myers to ring in the unofficial end of summer. And in honor of the unofficial end of summer, I’ve added a post-Tom Lehrer surprise.
Here is the playlist in full. Don’t forget that you can listen to the RoCM online at KCSB-FM’s website and there’s an online archive available for two weeks after the show airs.
