Miles Davis was born 1926 May 26 so this week marks his centenary. Therefore, most of this episode is jazzy with one of Davis' soundtracks, the 1958 French film Ascenseur pour l'Échafaud, but we also make our 1st attempt to paying tribute to CITR's The Jazz Show with the late great Gavin Walker as I dig up some old segments from shows, including an interview with vibraphonist Milt Jackson. Technology mostly cooperated but guess what, surprises remain in store as breaking news crept in. 01. Aldous

The film, which follows two orphaned cheetahs as they learn to survive in the wild, just recently debuted on CBC as part of The Nature of Things.

With a bit more time and stroke of luck, we'll finally pay tribute to the actor Robert Duvall (1931-2026) with a focus on two Texan gems: the 1983 film Tender Mercies & the 1989 miniseries Lonesome Dove.
