Thanks for the tribute to George

A hearty thanks to Jim Buchanan who brought us just one more Friday afternoon with George by re-airing a Jazz Mainstreams from the archives, and having some fun with show tunes--I think this would pass muster with George!

About George Moore

The show began as "Great Jazz Albums" on October 1, 2004--the first week KDRT was on the air. I did 62 shows until February 24, 2006. Then Pete came along and we expanded it to "Jazz Mainstreams."

I draw on my collection, going back over 60 years, and include the likes of Lu Watters, Mahalia Jackson, Big Joe Turner, Jimmie Witherspoon, Lord Buckley, Junior Mance, Gene Harris, Stan Kenton, the Preservation Hall Jazz Band , Tom Kubis and Jessica Williams.

The choices reflect my taste for older styles and blues-oriented artists. In our current paddling up and down the Jazz Mainstreams, they still do.

As of Jan 4, 2008, I'm doing Jazz Mainstreams by myself, co-host Pete Basofin having done his farewell show. I will play more music along Pete's lines and I'll also present encores of some of his shows.

I would be very glad to hear from anyone who would like to alternate weeks with me as a new co-host. Call or e-mail KDRT and leave your name and phone number. It's a lot of fun, really.
