About this listen

Hear British musician Jarvis Cocker, book critic Maureen Corrigan, and jazz critic Kevin Whitehead on this edition of Fresh Air.

Jarvis Cocker has just released The Jarvis Cocker Album, his first solo effort. Cocker founded his band Pulp at age 15. Cocker made headlines in 1996 when he stormed the stage in protest at a Michael Jackson concert in London at the BRIT awards. The resulting attention caused sales of the band's album to soar.

Plus, Maureen Corrigan has some nonfiction summer reading suggestions: Warm Springs: Traces of a Childhood at FDR's Polio Haven by Susan Richards Shreve; Dog Days by Jon Katz; and The Perfect Summer: England 1911, Just Before the Storm by Juliet Nicholson.

Finally, Kevin Whitehead reviews Marsalis Music Honors Alvin Batiste, a new album released in April, just a month before the New Orleans clarinetist's death in May of this year. [Broadcast Date: June 25, 2007]
