We're going to play "Station To Station" as our #ClassicRewind tonight at 11. On Saturday this David Bowie album turns 45 (rel. 01/23/76). Take a listen and see why Brian Eno called it, "one of the greatest albums of all time."

In Performance from NPR Music

Jonas Gwangwa, South African Musician And Activist, Dies At 83

The trombonist was a major figure in South Africa's early jazz scene, and an activist after the restrictions imposed by apartheid. In 1988 he was nominated for an Oscar for his theme to Cry Freedom.



The Voices Of Black Women Were Essential To Phil Spector's Wall Of Sound

The full impact of Spector's musical legacy is impossible to measure without accounting for the creative labor of singers like Darlene Love and the damage Spector's manipulations did to their careers.



Punk And Harmony: Rising Rock Trio Palberta Finds A Sweet Spot

Just as soon as you think you have a frame of reference for the Brooklyn band's sound, it swerves into an entirely new direction. Palberta's new album, Palberta5000, comes out Jan. 22.



We Need To Be Able To Feel

The cost of 2020 — in lives, livelihoods, legacies and communities — is high and still being tallied. For jazz critic Nate Chinen, all that loss demands change to old ideas of critical objectivity.



The 2020 Jazz Critics Poll: It's After The End Of The World

2020 was an annus horribilis if there ever was one, writes Francis Davis, the founder of NPR Music's Jazz Critics poll, and much of the year's best jazz carried post-apocalyptic feelings within it.
