About this listen

Actor Ben Affleck and Jazz guitar players Bucky and John Pizzarelli, on this edition of Fresh Air. Ben Affleck is currently starring in the new film, Hollywoodland as George Reeves, the actor who played Superman in the original TV series. The film is about the real-life, unsolved murder of Reeves. Affleck also co-wrote Good Will Hunting with Matt Damon, and their screenplay won both an Academy Award and a Golden Globe Award. Affleck's other films include: Shakespeare in Love, Dazed and Confused, Chasing Amy, and Dogma. He also wrote the screenplay for the upcoming film Gone, Baby, Gone, based on the novel by Dennis Lehane. Then, Jazz guitar players Bucky and John Pizzarelli. John has been playing guitar with his legendary father Bucky since the age of six. John's latest album is Dear Mr. Sinatra, on which he plays songs written for Frank Sinatra. Tracks include "Ring a Ding Ding", "Nice and Easy", and "Witchcraft". John is also a singer. Self-taught, Bucky Pizzarelli has long been a master of the seven-string guitar. In 1952, Bucky joined the staff of NBC, and 12 years later he switched to ABC; additionally, he worked with the Three Sounds (1956-57) and had several tours with Benny Goodman. In the 1970s, he was more active in jazz, co-leading a duo with George Barnes and working with Zoot Sims, Bud Freeman, and Stephane Grappelli, among many others. Pizzarelli has since kept up a busy recording schedule and plays often at jazz parties. Bucky has also recorded with his son John Pizzarelli on an occasional basis since the early 1980s.
