Bola Sete at the Penthouse in Seattle.

The recent discovery and issue of radio broadcasts by Brazilian guitarist Bola Sete's has stirred enthusiasm from coast to coast. The three-CD set includes music from six live radio shows from the Penthouse in Seattle from 1966 to 1968. Several selections from 1966 will air on today's episode of Jazz Northwest. Also new on this week's show are the last CD by the Jim Knapp Orchestra and the new Fireside Brass CD by the Westerlies.

Also on this week's show is holiday music by Hans Teuber and Dave Peterson, Karin Plato, Don Lanphere, Thomas Marriott and Bill Anschell.
