My dear friend and Jazz Note contributor Ken Laster has devoted on of his In The Groove radio shows to this blog. I could not be more grateful. In The Groove has been a vital part of my jazz experience since first I discovered it. I believe I have listened to every show available online.
As I have noted before, Ken has sold a lot of jazz. I estimate that I have purchased about 50 discs after hearing a sample on ITG. This is especially true of recent jazz, which is surprisingly hard to sample in the contemporary environment.
I am trying to do the same service to the music I love by means of this blog. I offer the occasional sample, so that readers will have some idea of what I am talking about. If you like the samples, buy the discs.
Thanks, Ken. One of these days I am going to get up your way. Dinner's on me.
