On this edition I pay tribute to the late great Wolfgang Schlueter, one of the great leading figures of German/European Post War Jazz, a master on the vibraphone and an exceptional composer, arranger and bandleader, featured here in a duo, a small group and in the NDR Big Band Setting, looking back at an extraordinary career.
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.
