Jazz Northwest For April 16

Each week on Jazz Northwest, we highlight various aspects of the regional jazz scene, some recent releases, some noteworthy gigs, or a recent performance.  

This week, we'll feature the Keith Henson Octet, Alex Dugdale, McTuff, Susan Pascal, Mark Lewis, Kelley Johnson and Ben Roseth, plus a sample from a soon to be released album of the Wynton Kelly Trio playing at The Penthouse in Seattle in 1966. Kelly was noted for his work with Miles Davis, Wes Mongomery, Cannonball Adderley, Dizzy Gillespie and others. 

Jazz Northwest airs Sundays at 2 p.m. Pacific on 88.5 KNKX and streams at knkx.org.  After broadcast, each program is  available as a podcast at jazznw.org.  The program is recorded and produced by Jim Wilke.  Next week (4/23), the Jacqueline Tabor Quartet recorded in concert at The Seattle Art Museum.

Jim has been a fixture on Seattle radio since 1961. He was the host of Jazz After Hours on Public Radio International from 1984-2014. Currently Jim has been producing Jazz Northwest for KNKX since 1988. This weekly program focuses on the regional jazz scene and frequently includes performances Jim records on location for Jazz Northwest.
