2017.03.06 Eric Person on Woody Shaw 1 of 3

In the Jazz world of utterly distinctive individuals, trumpeter Woody Shaw still managed to stand out. He didn’t speak like everybody else, he didn’t move like everybody else (the hours of tai chi that he would do-- sometimes right in the audience of a performance venue-- might have had something to do with that), he didn’t think like everybody else and he certainly didn’t play like anybody else. When saxophonist Eric Anthony Person

and host Mitch Goldman were coming up, his live shows were not to be missed.

This is going to be a barnburner!
