Here is a recent comment on our show by Mark Weber who does a great Jazz show on KUNM in Albuquerque on Thursdays from 12:00 noon to 1:30.
What better way to spend your Saturday morning than to
deja vu into that subconsciously familiar all-pervasive “folk”
music that underpins all the stories of the world that are worth
anything — everyone from Bartok to Charlie Parker dipped into
this deep well and here you have it served up on a silver airwave
by two ethnographers that have travel’d the backroads and backwaters
of America to truckload this real music: Ken & Jeanie as warm as
a bowl of posole.
—Mark Weber
KUNM Albuquerque Thursday Jazz
This is Ken here and we sure had a good time yesterday doing the show and honoring Pete Seeger and some of the folks he influenced. I hope you all get your friends to start listening to the show so it becomes a Saturday morning habit. I’ll try to get the playlist from the show yesterday started right now. I’ll put the artist, the album and the song in that order. I’ll try to get the most recent one done here and then add the shows before as we go.
