Introducing the Charlie Parker “Yardbird” Playlist

I’m sure there are many who have question why I don’t feature Charlie Parker as much? For those listeners, I have a two reasons, first of all, it’s not easy to obtain good quality (Remastered) music from Parker. Secondly and until now, my library didn’t have enough to create an extensive playlist that I could feature everyday without repeating songs over and over. But I finally have enough quality and quantity to permanently add the great “Bird” to Jazz Con Class. The Charlie Parker playlist will be known as the “Yardbird” playlist. The playlist description can be found here with the others I feature here and the Schedule link will help learn when all the playlist are going to be played.

Now Playing

After searching across the web for the best jazz station, I found Jazz Con Class Radio. Hands down, the best jazz music anywhere. Why you ask? The focus on the best jazz music ever recorded, combined with the depth of artists and tracks played. I have heard so many tracks that I have never heard before, it’s mind blowing what Jazz Con Class Radio plays that other stations don’t. Mr. Reyes, your station is a national artistic treasure!

This is exactly the kind of radio station I've ever wished for, since I learned to love jazz music. Please keep going like this for as long as possible !

Hi José Reyes,
I have been listening to your radio broadcasting for some time and I can assure you without a doubt that your jazz program is the best on the entire network. I hope you could keep it for a long time without advertising and maintaining the quality that characterizes you. My girlfriend and I heard you from Basque Country in Spain with great pleasure for our ears and our senses. That's why we congratulate you and thank you!
