Themed-show summer continues (quite unintentionally) with "Walk Don't Run"! All song titles have the word 'walk' in them, a few have 'run'. Lots of neat material including the irresistible theme song for the show by Johnny Smith (later made famous by the Ventures). We'll end with the lengthy 1954 version of "Walkin'" by Miles Davis. Keepin' it fun! Tune in on Tuesday 7/22 from 3-7pm eastern. Listen for free online via iHeart by clicking here or tune in locally at 88.5FM. See you then! - Kendo

Spring is here, baseball is underway, lovely weather here in NE Florida, and it's Earth Day! No themed show today, just as much good music and variety as can be squeezed in 4 hours. I heard or stumbled upon a lot of good stuff during the week (including a Record Store Day outing). In particular, a playlist made up of music recorded in 1962. As always we'll be hitting up the new jazz shelf at WFCF, and a special treat last set for folks who stay tuned to the end. All this Tuesday, April 22nd, from 3-7pm Eastern.
