THE CLASSIC JAZZ HOUR

The hour starts off with “Strumming” hosted by jazz guitarist Ross Morgan who looks at the great jazz guitar players of our time. Ross shares his love for jazz guitar, selecting his favorite guitar tracks while providing us with fascinating backstories about the artists and their music.

The second half of the hour features “The A List with John Armato” highlighting the best in classic, cool and up-and-coming jazz. John is a veteran jazz drummer from Kansas City now based in California whose debut album “The Drummer Loves Ballads” received international airplay and wide critical praise. “A List” is shorthand for the best of the best, but it’s also short for “The Armato List” – John’s personal pick of legendary jazz greats, outstanding lesser-known artists, and exciting emerging voices.
