Jazzed will bring an array of classic and contemporary jazz music to the airwaves at Petaluma radio

On Jazzed today, our Spotlight Artist of the Week is jazz bassist, composer and band leader Marc Johnson. He has released 10 solo albums. However, in my opinion, some of his best music has come from his collaboration as a sideman. He was in the final Bill Evans Trio prior to Evans' passing, and has worked with guitarist Pat Martino and pianists Enrico Pieranunzi and Lyle Mays. We'll hear music from all those artists today as we listen to a sampling of the career of Marc Johnson. I hope you can tune in...and spread the word!
