Charles Mingus, Duke Ellington, Lionel Hampton, et al. -- On the Next ATJ, It's April Birthdays!

Listen for the next All This Jazz, beginning at 9pm on Saturday the 2nd, right here on Public Radio 89.5 KWGS-FM...and online via live stream at PublicRadioTulsa.org. Our program delivers three hours of modern/recent/classic jazz, across a range of styles, each and every Saturday night -- from 9 o'clock till midnight. (We also offer a 7pm re-airing of ATJ on Sunday evenings, on Jazz 89.5-2, which is Public Radio Tulsa's all-jazz HD Radio channel.)

From John Abercrombie to John Zorn, Bud Powell to Bud Shank, Joe Newman to Joe Lovano, and Red Norvo to Red Garland, All This Jazz is delighted by modern (and post-modern!) jazz in its many various forms, and we dig sharing the same with our listeners.

And in the thematic, 11-to-midnight hour of our next ATJ, we'll celebrate the newly arrived “cruelest month” (per T.S. Eliot) as we take April Birthdays as our theme. Thus we’ll hear from Charles Mingus (shown here), Duke Ellington, Lionel Hampton, Randy Weston, Robert Glasper, and various other jazz greats with b'days this month.

Elsewhere in our show, tune in for the likes of Sonny Stitt, Joe Farrell, Blue Mitchell, Bill Charlap, and more.

Join us! If you're a jazz fan, then All This Jazz is all for you.

(Two final points: ATJ playlist information can be found right about here...and 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.
