Miles Ahead - May 20, 2010

Fuck powdered wigs, powdered hair!

I subbed in for Jim Cushing's Jazz show, which was really a great honor that Cushing wanted me for the show. Miles Ahead 8 to 10pm on Thurdays only on KCPR. This week I focused on 20s Flapper, Swing, and Bebop Jazz. I feel so professional now...if only I was...
