Audio Archive - Jazz Compilations

Hosted by Glen and Eddie. In my (admittedly huge) collection of Jazz I have a goodly number of compilations. They do not get the same amount of play as albums by a single artist, but there is a wealth of great Jazz among them. In this episode we play tracks from three very different compilations. From Prestige records we have a compilation of Soul Masterpieces, from Candid records we have a record that supports a book written by the notable Jazz writer Nat Hentoff and lastly (but by no means leastly) we have the Definitive Jazz Scene Volume Three presented by Impulse records. The whole makes for an hour of great and varied Jazz, enjoy! Listen On Demand

99 - Inspired by Neil Diamond

This week, Franco explores the world of Neil Diamond through a uniquely Italian lens, sharing beautiful Italian‑language covers of his classics.
