The Jazz House show is all about passion and our love affair of all music, last week we looked to the future and played some stunning new music with some fantastic feedback to what we played.
This week we do the opposite and look back and dig out some fabulous music made by the likes of Masters At Work, Barbara Tucker, Martha Wash, Robert Owens. We will also feature some sublime house grooves from the likes of Scott Grooves, Sandy Rivera to kick start the show whilst twisting things up in the 3rd hour as we chill you out and dose you up with some surprises.
It’s another killer edition not to be missed, so be part of it this Friday from Midnight.
I look forward to having your company!
