The Jazz Show - 4ZZZ The best in modern jazz with Knox & Don (and guest announcers). THE JAZzZ SHOW - 9-12PM

The best in modern jazz with Knox & Don (and guest announcers).

The best modern jazz ever recorded. All shows are varied, with content ranging from solo and trio format to small groups and big bands, not overlooking great vocalists. Some shows have a unifying theme, usually an artist but occasionally a birthday. Most shows have domestic as well as overseas content, and occasional interviews with local and visiting artists.
