Jazz Unlimited for Sunday. December 29, 2019 will be “The Jazz Unlimited Goodbye Show.” There is an old saying that begins with “For everything there is a season…” For Jazz Unlimited, it is time to go. I’ve had a good run of over 36 years and now it’s time to retire and play with the grandkids. I will miss every one of you who has listened over the years. My wife and I have moved to the Phoenix area and are living a very active life. The music will be by some of my favorite jazz artists playing some of my favorite music: Louis Armstrong, Bix Beiderbecke & Frank Trumbauer, Jelly Roll Morton, Benny Moten, Art Tatum, Count Basie, Billie Holiday, Lester Young, Benny Goodman, Sidney Bechet, Duke Ellington, Charlie Parker, the Lighthouse All-Stars, the Dizzy Gillespie Big Band, Lennie Tristano & Lee Konitz, Miles Davis, The Birth of the Cool Band, Bud Powell, Woody Herman, Brown-Roach, Inc., the Miles Davis quintet with John Coltrane & Red Garland, Oscar Peterson, Thelonious Monk, Carmen McRae, Ornette Coleman, Ahmad Jamal, the Dizzy Gillespie Quintet, Bill Evans, Art Blakey, the classic John Coltrane Quartet, Sonny Rollins, Joe Lovano, the Mahavishnu Orchestra, Joe Henderson and Fred Hersch. This is the last Jazz Unlimited Show.
