I enjoyed hearing her read these articles. She has such enthusiasm for other talented musicians in the Jazz world and is eager that they should be known. Much of the technical music talk and Jazz references were beyond me, a beginning admirer, yet I still found it interesting and entertaining as a whole.
The last CD in this collection from Blackstone Audio is a collection of excerpts from some of her Piano Jazz radio shows. Delightful. ( )
