Episode description

If somebody asks you if you like jazz, how can you answer? There are so many sub-genres of jazz around today: hard-bop, be-bop, swing, fusion, Bossa Nova or Latin, funk, free jazz, Cool jazz, Afro-Cuban, world jazz, smooth jazz, astral jazz, etc. etc. etc.

Today’s episode explores a few of those. You’ll even hear a bit of one very familiar melody played in some of those styles. And lots of complete selections too illustrating some of those genres.
