This landmark publication is the definitive opus of Morrison’s creative output—and the book he intended to publish. Throughout, a compelling mix of 160 visual components accompanies the text: excerpts from his 28 privately held notebooks—all written in his own hand and published here for the first time—as well as an array of personal images and commentary on the work by Morrison himself. The archive is available for 2 weeks after the show airs.

Fast forward to 2026, and Cindy commands that same power with her new album, Coherence: a once-in-a-lifetime journey combining jazz, rock, fusion, & spirituality, with special guests John McLaughlin & Carlos Santana. Buckle up for a masterclass in modern music from one of the most electrifying drummers to ever do it. The album's title suggests unity, which is at the core of Blackman Santana's philosophy. As she describes it, "Coherence is about everything in creation coming together." The music reflects that philosophy, breaking down barriers, whether musical, political, or spiritual. As a result, the music is not always genre-specific. She effectively blends jazz and rock with other styles as well. For Blackman Santana, music transcends barriers and directs our attention to something more universal. Coherence CD & Vinyl signed available for a donation to KPFK, call 818-985-5735 option 2
