On the Next ATJ: Four Jazz Greats Born a Century Ago

Join us for All This Jazz, starting at 9pm on Saturday the 23rd, right here on KWGS / Public Radio Tulsa. It'll be three hours of can't-miss modern jazz, all of it lovingly presented by an actual person (rather than an algorithm).

 

And in the 3rd and thematic hour of our show, running from 11pm till midnight, our focus will be Four Jazz Greats Born a Century Ago. Thus we'll spotlight the music of Art Blakey (shown here), Anita O’Day, George Shearing, and Nat "King" Cole, all born in 1919. And elsewhere in our program, listen for music from Ron Carter, The Peter Hand Big Band, Roxy Coss, Chet Baker, and others.

 

Tune in, fellow jazz buffs! Every Saturday night, both online and over the air, we deliver both recent and classic jazz…across a wide range of styles. Indeed, All This Jazz is delighted by modern (and post-modern!) jazz in its many forms, and we dig sharing the same with our listeners.

 

Also, FYI: ATJ playlist info can be found here, at the bottom of the page...and we maintain a Facebook page for our show. Thanks for listening.

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.
