Listen "Roy Eldridge 2"
Episode Synopsis
WKCR has a long standing tradition of celebrating Roy Eldridge, “Little Jazz”, with a marathon 24-hour broadcast tribute every year on the trumpet giant's birthday anniversary, January 30.
To close the 2019 edition, I presented a rousing set of highlights of Roy’s career from 1941-1970 for casual listening. It ranges from Gene Krupa and Artie Shaw to the Newport Rebels and The Nifty Cat, with plenty in between. 75 minutes.
