Neil & Drake, The Dancing Labrador
Wow, Ian. First track of the show, Melanie Scholtz gave me goose bumps up my spine and arms. I will be searching out everything I can find later today to educate myself on this very sweet artist discovery to make my day. Thank you for the introduction, Ian. Great guitarist, and in particular the bass player !!

He moved out to his living room bed from the kitchen when he heard that first song. That's where the Wave Radio is playing the sweet notes !! Drake is a jazz fan, just like his Dad !!

Bose always had and still has that great sound on all of their speaker systems; ESPECIALLY FOR JAZZ RECORDINGS.
