Put Some Sonny Stitt Into Your Sunday

April 22, 2004

Tune into Freedom Jazz Dance this Sunday from 5-7 pm EST on Richmond Indie Radio www.wrir.org. This week my improvisational journey through modern jazz will include Tom Harrell, Dexter Gordon, Miroslav Vitous, Rene Marie, Bill Evans, Ricky Ford, Branford Marsalis, John D'earth and many more great artists. Of course, I will also be spinning rare 78s and hard-to-find jazz on vinyl. Nothing like a little scratch-and-pop to give you that down home jazz feeling.

Thanks for listening!
