Ken Dryden Posted February 12, 2019 Report Share Posted February 12, 2019 (edited) I hosted Timeless Jazz out of my collection on WUTC-FM betwen 1987 and 2002 and it returned to the station beginning February 3. It airs on WUTC.org (88.1 FM in greater Chattanooga Sundays from 2 to 4 pm ET, the HD-2 broadcast can be heard on Wednesdays from 10 am to 12 noon). The program won't always have a specific topic, though for Sunday, Feburary 17, I will be focusing on Japanese CDs exclusively. No podcasts as yet, but we are working on that. I decided that it was silly to be the only one enjoying portions of a collecton accumulated over 45+ years. I will likely include some interviews, some of which were previously aired but with different music, others have never been broadcast. I plan to tape new interviews as well. I hope you'll tune in to the show. Edited February 12, 2019 by Ken Dryden Typo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ken Dryden Posted March 12, 2019 Author Report Share Posted March 12, 2019 (edited) This Sunday's broadcast celebrates the centennial of Nat King Cole's birth (March 17, 1919) with a survey of his career between 1939 and 1956. Obviously a lot of the music came from the 18 CD Mosaic boxed set The Complete Capitol Recordings of the Nat King Cole Trio, but I also included transcriptions, broadcasts, previously unissued live recordings that have appeared in the last 20 or so years. With so many brief songs, the sets consist mostly of 4 to 5 songs. It airs from 3 to 5 pm EDT at wutc.org or on the station's HD-2 channel from 10 am to 12 noon the following Wednesday.

Ken Dryden Posted March 25, 2019 Author Report Share Posted March 25, 2019 I thought about doing a 101st birthday tribute to Marian McPartland last Sunday, but I had just devoted an entire program to Nat King Cole. No matter, this Sunday's show and possibly the following week, will be devoted to her music. I may include excerpts from one or two of the several interviews I did with her in the second show, the earliest one being in 1988. Also in the works is a show on Denny Zeitlin, with an air date in late April. He is appearing at Mezzrow May 1-4. I am interviewing him later today.
