Today, the Spotlight shines On saxophonist and composer Javon Jackson.
Javon sat with us in early October to talk about his film score for the art-world documentary With Peter Bradley, music which came out back in June 2023 on the saxophonist's Solid Jackson Records.
Peter Bradley has had a 50-year career as an abstract artist, but one that saw him getting little acclaim until the last few years. In addition to his work as an artist, the daily practice of which is documented in the film, Bradley was a mover and shaker in various mid-late 20th century modern art scenes. His work is interconnected with his love of jazz, to the point that Javon calls Bradley a “musician whose instrument is paint”.
The score for the film conjures Bradley's favorite jazz icons — Miles, Coltrane and Jackson's former employer, Art Blakey.
I had the opportunity to screen the film before speaking with Javon and I fell in love with the subject, the art and the score. I urge you to check out the music and Peter Bradley’s art.
(The music excerpts heard in this episode are all from Javon Jackson’s With Peter Bradley soundtrack.)
