Playlist for 2014 4 29 WFCF - Jazz Greats!


"Road Less Traveled" - Kenneth Frizzell
acrylic on canvas
Visit the artist's website!


The name of the splendid work of art above is sort of what I was going for this week in selecting music; with material either by cats I don't ordinarily play, or from albums I've forgotten about lately, like the Stryker/Slagle band, Howard Rumsey, Moutin Brothers, and a fine disc by John Patitucci! It's also the last Tuesday of the month, so it's time to sacrifice another virgin! I've been a good boy, not opening a new viny copy of "Shades of Green" by Grant Green the last few weeks... so we can enjoy the experience together. We'll hear all of side one! Lots of new jazz, and some classics as well. Stay til the end and hear a phenomenal cut from Art Blakey featuring Chuck Mangione & Keith Jarrett. Tune in live at 88.5 FM if you're in the listening area; or listen online for free by clicking here. That's Tuesday 4/29 from 3-7pm eastern. See you then! - Kendo

Hey - the 100th post on this blog! w00t! I had a real good time putting the playlist together this week - couldn't wait to spin it! In addition, requests were taken from the listeners on FB.

We heard a great one from that, and we continue exploring "Happenings" by Bobby Hutcherson.

Visit the artist's website!

Well - it's happened. We've reached the end of summer, so this will be the last themed show for a while. But it's a good one: "The Night"! Songs about dreamy things, mysterious things, spooky things, lonely things, amazing things, lofty things, lowly things & since we are talking about music here, romantic things. If you are sad to see the themed shows leave, have no fear - next week I have something very special planned; and in October we'll embark on a new, fun way of exploring the Jazz Greats. Meanwhile - we'll celebrate the music of the nocturnal this Tuesday (9/17) from 3-7pm Eastern. Listen online anywhere in the US by clicking here. Bring a sweater and meet me then! - Kendo
