On the Next All This Jazz: Trane Songs (for Coltrane's Birthday)

Listen for the next All This Jazz, starting at 9pm on Saturday the 21st, right here on KWGS / Public Radio Tulsa.

Our program's third-hour theme -- running in the 11pm-to-midnight hour and Totally Undoubtedly Worth Staying Up For -- will be Trane Songs…as John Coltrane would have turned 93 on 9/23. Our birthday tribute to Trane (who died in 1967) will feature the likes of Hilton Ruiz, Steve Kuhn, Conrad Herwig, and Kurt Elling -- plus, we’ll offer a taste of the soon-to-be-released (!) Coltrane album, BLUE WORLD. And elsewhere in our show, we'll enjoy the music of Charlie Parker, Jim Hall, Nancy Wilson, Ingrid Jensen, Harold Mabern, and many others.

Every Saturday night, both online and over the air, ATJ delivers three hours of recent and classic jazz, across a wide range of styles, from 9 o'clock till midnight. From Paul Desmond to Paul Motian, Duke Ellington to Duke Jordan, Woody Herman to Woody Shaw, and Chris Connor to Kris Davis, All This Jazz is delighted by modern (and post-modern!) jazz in its many forms, and we love sharing the same with our listeners.

Also, please note that ATJ playlist information can be found here, at the bottom of the page...and that we 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.
