This week’s show is something of a first for me, I bring you more Latin jazz than I ever have before.  With all this cold weather, I needed to spice things up a bit.  That said, we open with a trio of Hammond B-3 organ tunes from three legends of the form.

I also feature the “hits” from ‘West Side Story’ in keeping with the Latin flare…

Enjoy!
