Noted Toronto jazz drummer (and my brother) Nick Fraser joins me to talk about the concept of genre, musical narcissism, the difficulty in separating music from nostalgia, why he loves (and so many people hate) free jazz, what he looks for in music, and (of course) Rush, among other topics.
Find Nick's recordings, gigs and news on his website.
And stick around after the interview for a major What Is This Music?! announcement.
