  • It's Thanksgiving weekend, and we've got some family harmonies. Coming up, we are going to revisit a conversation with the late bassist, Charlie Haden. Haden is known to many for his early work in the late ‘50s with free jazz sax player, Ornette Coleman. A decade later, he founded the Liberation Music Orchestra with arranger and pianist Carla Bley, a group dedicated to political activism. Over the years, Haden collaborated with pianists Keith Jarrett, Kenny Barron, Hank Jones, and his most enduring partnership was with fellow Missourian, guitarist Pat Metheny. Although Charlie Haden’s homeland for many years was Los Angeles, he grew up mostly near Springfield, Missouri. When I spoke to the consummate jazz bassist in 2008, he was drawing attention for a country music record made in Nashville, Rambling Boy, where he was joined by his musical family and several guests. For Haden, country music was a homecoming. His career really began at age two, singing–yodeling–on his parent's live radio show.
