Playlist for 12-16-14 WFCF - Short Show with Donald Byrd!

I have to leave the station early today, so it will be a short "Jazz Greats" show from 3-5pm EST, and then Ralph will take over for me. The first hour is a mix of new jazz, a few holiday cuts and music from some early Christmas gifts. The second hour will be all Donald Byrd! Tune in Tuesday 12/16 online by clicking here.
