A few extended features on this afternoon's edition of The A-Trane Radio Program starring with an early celebration of Art Pepper's Centenary with a 1980 weekend starting at Ronnie Scott's going into An Afternoon in Norway at the Kongsberg Jazz Festival released earlier this year. It seems as though every day brings bad news about great musicians we have lost and we'll have tributes to two wonderful artists who we lost this week - Nancy King and Joe Daley! We'll also have time for Benny Carter's birthday today (he takes in the theme from the Montreal Jazz Festival!) and upcoming performance features for Nick Hempton, Brad Shigeta (with a new trio release!), Jodi Gilbert, Michael Moore and more. We'll finish with a down payment on a tribute to the late Eddie Palmieri who will be featured on an upcoming A-Trane!
We have many musical debts at the A-Trane and they always get paid! Cash in this afternoon at 100.5FM or coopradio . org at 2pm and you'll definitely be richer for it!
