This week we open with a titan in the world of jazz, Monty Alexander. He does his rendition of "Day O Banana Boat" and discusses his latest Monk album and so much more. We also feature a Frank Sinatra tune to memorialize a big moment in the life of Monty. From there, we focus on the world of New Orleans with a host of artists, from James Martin to his friend Trombone Shorty and back to a legend like Pete Fountain. We also feature Bonerama reaching out to with a new single entitled "Empty World" featuring the great Michael McDonald celebrating the life of the legendary Allen Toussaint. We keep it real with the rest of the hour and the new music from the likes of Moy Eng, Baritone Madness and Kansas City's very own RSS Trio. Enjoy the music, my friends.
