Playlist for 4-16-13 WFCF - Jazz Greats

Settling into the four hour thing and having a ball. This week - no theme, no wackiness (except for the usual), just a big cross-section of the best in jazz, and trying to add the flavor of the library built up over the last 15 years by the music directors at WFCF. This week I got exposed to albums by Jim Gailloreto & Ali Jackson, both of which I highly enjoyed, and are played on the show. Plenty from the new jazz shelf and some serious Florida talent as well.
