Red Kelly's Sextet playing a night at Parnell's in Seattle in 1981 will be featured on today's episode of Jazz Northwest. Recorded in the Pioneer Square jazz club for promotional purposes, Red Kelly's sextet swings hard through two Ellington-inspired pieces, "Don't Get Around Much Anymore" and "Castle Rock."

Also on this week's show, Janis Mann sings a beautiful October song and some musical samples of upcoming Earshot Festival concerts By Jamie Baum Septet, Dianne Reeves and Joe Lovano.
