Overlooked: Music + Words (Not Lyrics), Vol. 1
90.7-FM in NY's Upper Hudson Valley and wgxc.org/listen everywhere
http://www.wgxc.org/
Hosted by Rob Saffer.
This live broadcast from Overlook Mountain will feature spoken word and poetry, backed by music of all types and styles, from jazz and dub to psychedelic and avant garde. Special guest, music archivist Bill Dubilier, will join “Overlooked” host Rob Saffer in a collaboration that explores the words of poets, prophets, writers and weirdos who put thoughts to music. Among the 28 selections are two serendipitous coincidences: one pair of songs is about the folkloric succubus and another pair uses Japanese Gagaku music as source!

After the local news at noon, “Overlooked” is a show focusing on overlooked and under-heard jazz, improvisational, and other fringe music, from early roots to contemporary experiments, a mix of familiar to rare, classic to weird. Live from the shadow of Overlook Mountain in Ulster County.
Host Rob Saffer is the former Executive Director and Producer of the Creative Music Foundation.
