    Still enjoying the weekly wonderful jazz music! There are so many selections that I don’t have in my collection that I would not want to listen every week and check your fare with my own. I only hope you can last for a few more years. I cannot imagine the current generation latching on to this wonderful American and Jazz Music of the 1920’s and 1930’s. They will never care or bother to discover the Music of those wonderful decades.
