On August 17, 1959, Miles Davis released his masterpiece, Kind of Blue, which features such compositions as “So What,” “All Blues,” and “Blue in Green.” Regarded as the greatest jazz album (not to mention one of the most influential albums) of all time by a multitude of critics, Kind of Blue found the trumpeter experimenting with his sound (in particular, modalities), allowing each performer to have a wide berth with their improvisations. Davis led an all-star sextet, including saxophonists John Coltrane and Cannonball Adderley, pianist Bill Evans, bassist Paul Chambers, and drummer Jimmy Cobb (plus Wynton Kelly, who guested on piano for the track “Freddie Freeloader.” In addition to reverberating across a range of genres, Kind of Blue also shares the honor (alongside Vince Guaraldi’s A Charlie Brown Christmas) of being the best-selling jazz album of all time.🤓

Jazz90.1 WGMC Mission

Jazz90.1 is Rochester’s home for real jazz. We broadcast 24 hours a day, seven days a week at 90.1 FM, and over the Internet. (Listen now!) We play more hours of live, local jazz than any radio station in the United States. If you already love jazz, or if you’d like to know more about it, check us out. If you have a taste for swing, funk, improvisation, and experimentation — then your radio or computer should be locked on Jazz90.1.

Our Mission

At Jazz90.1, we believe that jazz is a living music. That’s why half our broadcast hours are focused on current artists who are committed to moving the music forward. Jazz90.1 plays more new music than any radio station in the U.S. On the flip side, we also play a heaping portion of the classics, names like Ella Fitzgerald, Duke Ellington, Wayne Shorter, John Coltrane, Miles Davis, Billie Holiday, and many more. When you listen to Jazz90.1, you get the best new jazz, and the best jazz of all time.

Jazz90.1 is YOUR Station!
