Now Kathleen is playing a cut from a Lionel Hampton reissue named "Mostly Ballads." The beautiful French song "Autumn Leaves."
Who knows when "Hamp" recorded this? Amazon can't help you out--it's a reissue. But the KCSM announcers know the music they play and where it came from and who created it--and they can tell you all about it if you're interested. And I believe a lot of jazz educators as well as just we jazz lovers need to keep them on the air and on the web so they can preserve the history of jazz just for us!
