This week we kick up our heels to six versions (Eddie Harris, Don Ellis, Miroslav Vitous, Miles Davis, Harold McKinney and Eddie Jefferson) of the Harris composition "Freedom Jazz Dance." Then we head down under to take in some New Zealand soul featuring Adeaze, Chong-Nee, Dallas Tamaira and Hollie Smith. and we conclude with a taste of Latin jazz from Dizzy Gillespie and Joe Cuba.
