This show is all about songs – jazz & standards – that are all at least 7 minutes long & no longer than 7:59.
While this was intended to be an “easy” show to produce & record – which it was – it also comes in just under 3 hours. That’s what happens when you play twenty 7 minute songs, I s’pose!
ENJOY!

This is a pretty special show today. My friends at “Vinyl Me, Please” – the monthly record club to which I belong – inspired me to bring you over an hour of sax music with having selected The Ben Webster Quintet record for vinyl of the month in December. So, you’ll hear two cuts from that record, but you’ll also hear Coleman Hawkins, Lester Young, Sonny Rollins & more.
Also, we have selections from Once – The Musical. Some tunes from the movie, too, as well as a special performance from Glen Hansard & Marketa Irglova as “The Swell Season” with an 8th Grade choir backing them up on “Falling Slowly.”
But, we start with a special set of music for a special set of people – Ken & Carmen Corrigan. I just call them Aunt Carmen & Uncle Ken. February 6th 2015 was their 50th wedding anniversary. They love Bobby Darin, so I open with him.
Enjoy!
PS: Below you’ll find the clip of the acceptance speech from Glen & Marketa when they won the Oscar for Best Original Song from “Once.”
