Good stuff going on at the Groove this morning. We'll hear Seattle's finest, Overton Berry plus a nice samba from Jim Hall and some superfunky jazz from Victor Feldman. Plus, a couple from Belgian great Marc Moulin both with and without his crack band, Placebo and two great Japanese-only fusion sessions, one featuring Headhunters bassist Paul Jackson and another from Tatsuo Paulo accompanied by Herbie Hancock.

Good things going on the Groove this morning. Looking at a new one from Quantic, entitled the Western Transient, a surprisingly mellow spiritual jazz affair and one of my favorite new releases of 2015. Plus, a set of Swedish jazz fusion featuring Janne Schaffer, some mellow Brazilian jazz including one from Baden Powell, lost organ funk from Bu Pleasant, and loooong one to celebrate the birthday of Cannonball Adderley! Come on in!

And we're back...
Happy to report that the venerable Mt. Airy Groove is
resurfacing after a one year absence from the airwaves! Indeed, the
vinyl stacks of the Groove will now make their home on Saturday mornings
from 7am-10am on 89.1 WFDU-HD2 in Teaneck, NJ, also home to Farleigh
Dickinson University (Go Knights...!).
New York area folks are able to listen to the show on the HD2 channel of 89.1 on the FM dial. For listeners beyond the FM listening range or without a HD radio, the show is available to stream at www.wfdu.fm -- just click on the "HD2 -- Jazz and What's More" tab. The easy to use WFDU app is also available in the Mac and Android app stores. The show is also available to stream via Sonos through the TuneIn Radio app. Plenty of ways to sit in!
And for this week's episode...
The Mt. Airy Groove returns to the airwaves this morning with a fresh stack of wax. Got a whole bunch of great international electric jazz with me including Quintonal of Montreal, Mighty Mighty of Finland and Joe Haider of Germany. Also, got some funky stuff from Seldon Powell, Eddie Russ and Houston Person!
