Visit the artist's website!

This week's show is almost entirely made up of music by artists living in, or born in, or associated with Florida. As always with these themed shows, it's not intended to be a definitive collection; there is no Marcus Roberts, Sam Rivers, Doug Carn or Ira Sullivan this time around. The ultimate goal was a pleasing sound and songs that sit well together. The final hour and a half took on a neat little mood, quite different from normal, and the first half of the show has full sets from both Sam Jones and Cannonball Adderley. I had a lot of fun putting this one together, and it kept me up kind of late! <yawwwn!> Tune in Tuesday April 8th from 3-7pm Eastern. See you then! - Kendo
