Ray Charles (The Institute of Jazz Studies)Win Some, Lose Some
Music played a big part in last night's Oscars, one of the notable films being the Ray Charles bio-pic Ray. Today John Tibbetts, a professor of film at the University of Kansas and author of Composers in the Movies, will discuss Ray’s continuation of the time-honored Hollywood genre known as the musician bio-pic. Also dropping by is alt-rocker Joseph Arthur, who’ll be performing live in our studio. Reemerging after his 2000 breakthrough into pop culture – his album Come to Where I’m From was Entertainment Weekly’s Album of the Year – Arthur has released a new album, toured with rock band R.E.M., and is beginning a tour of his own in March.
