Who:
The Jim Cullum Jazz Band swells to a 12-piece jazz orchestra to honor the music of bandleader Don Albert and Southwest "territory bands" based in San Antonio in the '30s and '40s. Revisit San Antonio's famed Eastside clubs with The Jim Cullum Jazz Band and special guest Vernel Bagneris as they recall the glory days and bring the music alive for two Riverwalk Jazz national radio broadcasts. Jazz critic Nat Hentoff states, "What makes this radio series so distinctive is not only the quality of the music but also of the documentary programs that become valuable additions to jazz history."
