I LOVE JAZZ

Our show this week celebrates the end of May and a June night.

We have an extended Classical jazz segment along with tributes to The King Of Swing-Benny Goodman & Paul Desmond on the anniversary of their birth.

Many new releases are again the highlight of the show and our artist of the week is Barbara Rosene (pictured).

We had the pleasure of meeting Barbara at the birthday party for Mat & Rachel Domber in New York last weekend.

We invite your comments.

I’ll be emceeing the Glendale Jazz Festival this friday! Should be a great show with great performances from the St. Louis Stompers traditional Dixieland Band. Gumbohead will bring funky New Orleans and Zydeco style music too.

Festival favorite Terry Thompson, the founder and producer of the event, will perform with his Swing Alive Band and its swinging brand of jazz. The band will feature vocalists Sherry Drake and Dean Christopher.

Come on out and enjoy the great show!

This week’s show introduces our “live”broadcast. This means we are originating our show locally and relaying it to the web.

You will hear the show with no commercials, even if you don’t have a VIP account.

This week, we mostly feature new releases with a bit of historical recording dates thrown in for good measure.

My pick for cd of the year thus far is Marilyn Scott’s new cd-Everytime We Say Goodbye. She has always impressed me but this one is a “knockout”.

I am always partial to music from the Duke but New York. New York has all gems that have never been released before now-thanks to my good friend-Bjarne Busk for sharing his collection with us all.

Another new release, which is of special importance is Marcus Shelby Jazz Orchestra musical Tribute to Harriet Tubman-a true hero in American history.

These & many others prove that Jazz is alive & well.

Join our new FM radio show which streams live every Friday night 10 pm-1 am cdt on CLASSIC99.COM & our 2nd television segment also streams 24/7 at HECTV.ORG

For your information, our website was down over the weekend, due to technical difficulties with our web hosting provider. All is well now. Thanks for your patience.

Andrew Heller has sung with numerous symphony orchestras as a soloist as well as the solo tenor for the famed Marble Colligate Church on Park Avenue in New York.

Heller has recorded 4 albums, and was truly a pleasure to visit with.
