For my second show in Canada's sesquicentennial year, I'm continuing with an all-Canadian line-up. We'll hear from Tommy Banks' Big Band recording from the Montreux Music Festival that won a Juno. Going further west , we'll investigate the newest release from Vancouver-based trumpeter/vocalist Anita Eccleston. Finally, I'll pay tribute to two jazz giants we lost this month.
