Thanks Marty, today we're going to hear a poem by Lawrence Ferlinghetti read at the Craighead Forest Bandshell.

Bebop Beatniks was designed with spoken word in mind. It's right there in the band name, Bebop says jazz and Beatniks says beat poetry.

At the Craighead Forest Bandshell on June 18, 2016, Bebop Beatniks opened their set with a song I wrote called "Church" and I invited my son, Carl Heyl, to read a poem called "9" from Lawrence Ferlinghetti's "Coney Island Of The Mind".

As always, Carl was entertaining, and he delivered the poem by portraying the scene, making it come alive for the audience.

Playing in Bebop Beatniks that day were, Kevin Tinker - trumpet, Sid Davis - trumpet, Paul Nunis - bass, and I'm on piano. All of us are from Northeast Arkansas.

There's a video of the performance where you can see Carl in action. It's really great and I'll include a link at sbblues.com.

This Saturday on Something Blue we're featuring a poet, Saul Williams, reading with three different bands.

So now, here's Carl Heyl reading the Lawrence Ferlinghetti poem, "9" in front of Bebop Beatniks playing my song, "Church".
