The Celebration Continues

Sunday, May 3

Jazz Appreciation Month may be over, but here on Straight No Chaser we celebrate year round. Tonight, listen for American jazz tenor saxophonist Eddie “Lockjaw” Davis and friend Sonny Stitt from their 1950's duo pieces. Also hear selections from David “Fathead” Newman, who is best known for his work as a sideman on singer-pianist Ray Charles' recordings. 

Bill Pearce was the host and producer of KMUW’s Straight No Chaser, a music program featuring mostly instrumental jazz, from early music to recent recordings. We’ll miss Bill, and his Sunday night show Straight No Chaser.
