Playlist for 11/27/12 WFCF - Jazz Greats

Compelling album by piano great Ron Miller

What a beautiful day! Today's show was a bit of a surprise - Mariann hurt her leg and had to stay home, doctor's orders! Nonetheless - it was a blast, as always. The ride from Palm Coast to Saint Augustine was the best one yet - windows down, sunshine and 78 degrees, awesome! It looks like I will be taking over the show, and Mariann will guest dj from time to time. I'm pretty excited and happy to be back 'in the groove'. Thanks for listening & for stopping by! - Kendo
