Swing Is In The Air
Sunday June 15th, 2014 with Karen Oxorn
CDs Purchased At the Ottawa Jazz Festival

It's just you and me today! I'll be featuring tracks from a variety of CDs that I purchased at the Ottawa Jazz Festival over the last twenty years. I've listened to some of these CDs over and over while others, I confess, have languished on the shelf. With the Jazz Festival about to open, what better opportunity to give them a spin?! Some of the artists will be familiar to many while others may be quite unknown. I hope you'll enjoy the selection. Photo: Fun with Bianca Basso in the CKCU FM studio on June 1st.

Hello, Giacomo! Well, what a treat to drop by this page this morning to check some information and find this message from you. I was really thrilled! I guess you never know who is listening out there. As a relative newcomer to radio, it's wonderful to know that the artists one features might sometimes be listening in! Thanks for writing to me and for the great music! KLO
