On the Next All This Jazz: Great Recordings Made in Paris

Listen for the next edition of All This Jazz, right here on Public Radio 89.5 KWGS-FM, airing at 9pm on Saturday the 21st -- or online via live stream at publicradiotulsa.org. (We'll also rebroadcast the show on Sunday the 22nd at 7pm on Jazz 89.5-2, which is our station's all-jazz-all-the-time HD Radio channel.)

From Duke Ellington to Duke Pearson to Duke Jordan, and from Charlie Parker to Charlie Christian to Charlie Mariano, our program delivers three hours of modern jazz -- across a range of styles -- each and every Saturday night, from 9 till midnight.

On the forthcoming installment of ATJ: Conrad Herwig, Roger Kellaway, Tom Waits, Ted Curson, John Kirby, and much more.

And in the theme-driven, 11-to-midnight hour of All This Jazz, we'll offer our own small gesture of support and appreciation for the French capital when we take Recorded in Paris as our theme. (Is Paris is the one city outside of the U.S. where the most jazz recordings have been made? Quite possibly. In any case, recent events got us thinking about, among other things, all the great sides that've been cut in "the City of Light" over the years.) Thus we'll hear from Don Byas, Diana Krall, Martial Solal, Dizzy Gillespie, and so forth -- in recordings that date from the 1940s through the early 2000s.

Join us, fellow jazz buffs! We've got the goods and then some.

(Two final points: ATJ playlist information can be found here...and we also maintain a Facebook page for our show. Gracias.)

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.
