The iconic label... Didn't play this one - too many scritchy scratches! |
This week we delved into the catalog of releases from the ECM label, at the request of faithful listener Geoffrey! Plenty of variety from the myriad of talent signed to the label. In addition we heard tracks recorded on this date (July 12) and a smidge of new jazz. Thanks to all who tuned in, everyone who called, and thank you for stopping by! - DJ Kendo
