Sounds of Jazz from home on the MCG Jazz Spotlight
WZUM is a radio station - broadcasting from one to many. In these times of COVID-19, it has meant that we do a lot of it from home.
This week on the MCG Jazz Spotlight, Marty Ashby has had the chance to dig into some records that he’s long been waiting to hear - and eager to share with you on the show.
From the Complete Prestige Collection of Oliver Nelson, Sound that included Bill Evans, Eric Dolpy and Joe Newman.
Haunting sounds of Antonio Carlos Jobim’s music with strings - and without Jobim!
The Miles Davis / Gil Evans collaboration.
Oscar Peters with jazz and show tune standards -
and some especially nice sounds from vocalist Stacey Kent.
Marty Ashby. The MCG Jazz Spotlight on WZUM - Friday and Sunday nights at 6, Saturday afternoons at 1.
