Week 7:: Turkey Pre-Feast

Just a touch on the late side, this week's edition makes up for the tardy service with an extra helping of Weber's famous audio-gravy on the side. It's straight ahead with some fusion favorites to groove you through the short work week.

Week 6:: Obama (and) Blues

Whether its a watershed moment of change in American history or just another chipped tooth in the gears of the American political machine, the 2008 election of Barak Obama has certainly been a hot topic in mainstream culture and the media.

As one of the oldest and most respected weber-run webradio elements of the mainstream media, WSRP couldn't let the occasion pass without an oblique (musical) commentary. This weeks show is our post-election special, with a little something for the red-blue-and-purple in all of us.

Week 5:: Re-Duke

After some consideration, I decided that my earlier "Duke tribute" show was rather disgraceful, so here is a much better sampling from the great font that is Ellingtonia, plus a few other choice cuts to round out the hour.

Back to Jazz, and happy about it.
