Gary RossHOST
They understand the transformation that's beginning to occur.
Gary RossHOST
The soda shop is becoming a coffee house, which marks a cultural transformation or progress as well from something innocent and pristine to something kind of bohemian and sort of out of the folk movement of the late 50s and early 60s or a jazz club with the Brubeck playing.
Gary RossHOST
And at the same time, there's an intellectual curiosity that's emblematic of that.
Gary RossHOST
So I'm trying to do several things at once.
Gary RossHOST
When I wrote this, I didn't know that Huckleberry Finn was like number four on the band book list and Catcher in the Rye was like number two, but it turns out they are.
Gary RossHOST
He begins to tell them the story of Holden Caulfield right here as we pull out.
Gary RossHOST

Jim MotavalliHOST
remember thinking that Burt Bacharach was really square.

And in my town, Jerry Mulligan and Dave Brubeck lived, and I used to think that that kind of jazz was really hopelessly outdated and everything.
Jim MotavalliHOST
And I love John Coltrane and Pharaoh Sanders and all these people.

ThomasHOST
I thought I could hear Dave Brubeck drumming away outside, but I looked out, all genuinely, all the bins in the street had fallen over, and their lids were just going...
RossHOST
And what does that say about jazz music? The spirit.
RossHOST
It's the same fucking thing as a bunch of bins.
