Tales from the far Side 11.01.18 A Celebration of "heavenly" Jazz

For this edition I picked a selection of "heavenly" tunes and songs expressing the feeling of being "IN HEAVEN", creating some moments of simple and sheer beauty with music by Ella Fitzgerald, Louis Armstrong, Billie Holiday, McCoy Tyner, Jimmy Scott, Ben Webster, Ray Brown, Gary Smulyan, Bob Wilber and Kenny Davern as well as the Michael Wollny Trio.

TALES FROM THE FAR SIDE is live on air on CRC102.9fm and on www.crcfm.ie every Thursday 8-9 pm with a repeat on Saturday 9-10 pm. And there is a podcast of the show available on the web site all through the week. The show has established itself over the years with a small but devoted listenership (even beyond Jazz-fans) and since the introduction on internet the listenership extended nationally and internationally.
