Fresh from Barrell Jones

London-based drummer, percussionist and bandleader Jas Kayser is sitting in for Soweto Kinch, sharing some of the exciting jazz releases from the UK and around the world.

Louis Hayes returns to share his third 4/4 selection from his personal repertoire, and tonight he chooses an album by one of jazz’s finest pianists.

There is also music from Jasper Høiby, Sly & The Family Stone, and Fela Kuti.

To listen on most smart speakers, just say: 'Ask BBC Sounds to play Round Midnight'.
