Today is Hubert Laws birthday! He was born November 10, 1939 in Houston, Texas. He is considered one of the great masters of the flute in Jazz and classical music. He is still traveling the world and making beautiful music at 82 years young as can be seen in this August performance with master pianist and composer Herbie Hancock. Tune in today 6-8 pm on KPFT 90.1 FM and kpft.org as we spotlight the music of the Laws family, saxophonist, Ronnie Laws, vocalist, Debra and Eloise Laws and flutist, Hubert Laws.
