Join Seonaid Aitken for a two hour virtual jazz excursion taking in a variety of locations and using various modes of transport...trains, boats, planes and cars! With many of us unable to travel or take holidays at the moment this is the perfect musical tonic to lift your spirits and enjoy from the comfort of your sofa at home with no passports, visas or quarantine required! Pianist Richard Michael joins in the fun and ‘Takes The A Train’ for this week’s Song Book, plus we have an exclusive first play of brand new music from pianist Peter Johnstone/guitarist Kevin MacKenzie . There’s also time for a virtual boogie across the airwaves in Dance To The Music with a 1940’s classic from American bandleader Glen Miller.
