Many of these tracks are also currently played on our Live365 I Love Jazz Shows.

Wishing all of you a pleasant and prosperous new year!

After an issue that crashed our Mac that holds all our tunes, we are back up and running with our live365 show in live mode!  All 4100 plus tunes are now available!

Don on HEC-TV

Be sure and see my Jazz Shows on HEC-TV.org.  

Our third episode is now Live! 

You can view this new show, and all previous episodes online or, if you are located in the St. Louis, Missouri area, you can watch on HEC-TV, on your cable television. 

I really enjoy putting these shows together, and you can watch and listen to some great jazz and great perspectives on Jazz.

Happy New Year Everyone!

Just wanted to say that we have gotten most of the kinks out of our I Love Jazz  Live365 Streaming Broadcast.  

We now have over 4100 tunes in our music library that will rotate according to themes and categories.  

This is still a work in progress, but we think you will enjoy the great music.  Now you can listen anytime, continuously if you like, and you are not likely to hear repeated tunes very often!

Be sure and let us know what you think of the new Streaming Format, and of course, be sure to listen to I Love Jazz on Friday Nights on Classic99 and watch our Jazz Tv Show at HEC-TV.

Happy New Year!

I want to wish each and every one of you a Happy New Year and to thank you for listening to my I Love Jazz shows!

We have made a change to the Live365 shows, with an automated playlist that now has over 4000 of my favorite Jazz Songs.

Please let us know how we are doing!  We will be updating the stream each week, and as it makes sense to give you the best Jazz Show!

Happy New Year!

It was with great pleasure that i had the privelege to join in conversations with Ray Brown, Jr recently.

Our conversation was quite a joy, and we got to talk about his new cd, Friends and Family.  It was great speaking about his great upbringing and the need to focus on high morals and to be respectful to other people.

He discuss his appreciation of quality music, and how his musical style has evolved over time, from pop to jazz.  

Ray spoke of how he was propelled into music, through Rock and Rhythm and Blues.  He spoke of his enjoyment and the challenge of jazz and making it his own.

Ray has a very relaxed and personal style that is great!

We sure hope you enjoy this great interview with such a pleasant and fantastic artist!

Finally, we’ve been able to share this great interview with you, our great Jazz lovers.  We had some difficulty with our website which prevented this interview from being uploaded, and finally these issues have been corrected, at least for now.
