This week’s show is a tour around jazz & Broadway.

We have 3 of the 4 greatest saxophonists ever & 4 numbers from Duke Ellington’s “Such Sweet Thunder.”

Is there a better way to spend time than listening to these geniuses?

I think not…

Enjoy!

This week’s show is short, sweet, tight, tidy & lively.

Since the holidays & through to last week’s epic 5-hour St. Patrick’s show, the shows have all mostly been well over 3 hours.  This week – and I think in ensuing weeks – I am going to aim for a 90 minute show.  I may occasionally go over that, but…

So, this week’s episode is all about Spring.  It is one of my favorite times of year – not too hot, not too cool.  Just right.

Kinda like this week’s show…

Enjoy!

This week’s show is another special one for me & for Jennifer.

Ireland has meant so much to us both over the years – her trip when she was a little girl & our trips together through the years.

So, this year’s show is a reflection of that emotion.  It’s long, but it’s beautiful – just like its inspiration.

Enjoy!

This week’s show is dedicated to the women.  It’s all women all the time on this one.  The first half of the show is standard issue standards.  The second half has some of those, but it’s decidedly different from the first half.  You’ll hear some blues, rock, folk, country & more.

To the women!
