Many say that live jazz is best, but sometimes we can't always get out to see the expensive shows! So today, we'll hear four lengthy cuts from some classic live jazz shows at the Blackhawk, the Village Vanguard, the Pershing and at Newport. Some big band cuts will feature as well, including Stan Kenton and Bob Florence. As always we'll have a few vinyl spins, selections from the new release shelf, and more jazz variety than you can shake a stick at! Join me from 3-7pm Eastern this Tuesday (12/3) and we'll listen together. It's all free on iHeart, or at 88.5FM for St. Augustine & surrounding areas. See you then! - Kendo
