95bFM: The 95bFM Jazz Show

A sunny afternoon of jazz brought to you by host Blind Mango Chutney and San Ray classic bistro, kicking off with the quasi-religious feel of Phil Upchurch (with the legendary Charles Stepney as producer) before heading into a big 10” set starting with the vibes of Milt Jackson and the alto sax of Charlie Parker. He finishes with some great local tracks by players from Jonathan Crayford & Riki Gooch, to Murray McNabb, Andy Brown & Frank Gibson Jr.

Check in here for the whole show…
