Richard (Rick) Laird Interview

I host a jazz show here on Wellington's Radio Active station (which some of you may already know). Fans of jazz or fusion may be interested in tuning in to the show Sunday 21st Dec at 11am NZ time. I've tracked down bass player Rick Laird who was one of the original line up of Mahavishnu Orchestra. He also played with Stan Getz, Wes Montgommery, Sonny Rollins and Hall and Oates before making a shift from music to photography in the early 1980s.

You can tune in on www.radioactive.fm at 10pm GMT Saturday 20th or I'll post the mix loud link after it has been broadcast.

Here is the interview for those who are keen to hear it:
