Original Post:
This Saturday, May 23rd at 3P.M. Eastern New York Time the Jazz Con Class Radio listeners will be enjoying a Jazz Funk/Blues special that will last three hours in total and will end at 6PM. It will concentrate on Jazz music that from the mid 50’s, when the Hammond organ was introduced to Jazz and with the sole purpose of adding more Blues to the tunes. This special will also concentrate on the very beginning of what the music industry decided to name Jazz-Funk. This Jazz era began in the mid 60’s and lasted until the early 70’s and was more soulful. That’s as far in time that Jazz Con Class Radio will travel. Jazz Fusion was very exciting as well but this Jazz station is more traditional and will not play any Jazz that was recorded after the mid 70’s. There are two very important exceptions; one is if the recordings are from legendary older Jazz musicians and secondly, if they are young jazz musicians who record traditional Jazz music. Check the playlists and learn all the Jazz eras that broadcast here. Check the schedule link also to learn when these playlists play. Thank you for your attention and tune in!
