On the Next All This Jazz, the Music of Sonny Rollins

Sonny’s in the house! Join us on KWGS 89.5 FM for the next ALL THIS JAZZ, airing Saturday the 12th, from 9pm to 12am Central. The great Sonny Rollins turned 90 earlier this week, and we’ll celebrate the birthday of "the Saxophone Colossus" by spinning several of his tunes…such as "Oleo" and "St. Thomas" and so on...as recorded by Rollins himself and by other jazz greats past and present.

Every Saturday night, both online and over the air, ALL THIS JAZZ delivers three hours of recent and classic jazz -- across a range of styles -- from 9 o'clock till midnight. From Mary Lou Williams to Mary Halvorson, Duke Jordan to Duke Pearson, Woody Herman to Woody Shaw, and Geri Allen to Gerry Mulligan, All This Jazz is delighted by modern (and post-modern!) jazz in its various forms, and we love sharing the same with our listeners.

Come along! Also, note that ATJ playlist information is here...and that we also maintain a Facebook page for our show. Thank you.

Scott Gregory started working at Public Radio Tulsa in 2006; he started listening to public radio circa 1980, when he and NPR both marked their tenth birthdays (although only one of them commemorated the occasion with a party at Skate World). Scott became this radio station's Operations Director in the summer of 2023; he also hosts and programs All This Jazz, which airs every Saturday night on Public Radio 89.5-1 from 9pm till midnight.
