Welcome my BMS Listeners to ‘It’s a Jazz Thing II’. This segment focuses on the sounds of jazz fusion and smooth jazz. This will be a hybrid of different styles and approaches of the art form. While I was growing up, jazz was a staple in the household but it took on many forms, from John ‘Ace’ Cannon to George Benson. Regardless of the varied styles, it was “Always There”.This show will feature Earth Wind & Fire, The Crusaders f/Randy Crawford, Najee, Tom Browne, Bob James, and many more.PLAYLIST1.
