Radio Shows
Hello all, this week is going to be a fun week of jazz radio!
On Mondays Chasin The Train (11:00 am - Noon, on 102.7) I'll be featuring the music of Kenny Barron and as a bonus will be airing a short interview I did with him last week. Going to be a great show and a good lead up to his performance at The Cellar this week.
On Tuesday the 13th I sub for John Orysik on "The Wild Years" from 230 to 500 on 102.7 CFRO. I will be featuring music from three of the most underrated saxophonists every. First, alto saxophonist GIGI GRYCE who was the driving force behind jazz musicians getting their publishing rights togehter. He was also more known as a composer and does not get enough credit for being a hard bopping alto saxophonist. Second will be tenor, flute and vibes man TUBBY HAYES who not a lot of people are aware of in America. He is perhaps the best known musicain from Britain who made an impact on the U.S. scene but still remains relatively unknown to most jazz fans. Thirdly I we will took a look at alto and tenorman ERIC KLOSS who burst on the scene when he was a mere 17 years old recording for Prestige. Kloss was blind and played with so much promise at such a young age but due to failing health did not play much in his later life. Im happy to report he is still alive and actually doing a lot more playing now but mostly on flute.
Its going to be a fun show. I hope you tune in!
