Gems From Contemporary Jazz Greats

Sunday, June 7

Tonight we revisit jazz from the not so distant past with saxophonist Phil Woods, the Clayton Brothers, and the rarely heard Roger "Buck" Hill. We'll also hear organist Jimmy Smith, who had several albums on Billboard, and Alan Broadbent.  Broadbent is active as a pianist, arranger and conductor around the world and has won several accolades including a Grammy and the New Zealand Order of Merit

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.
