"Sugarman" Sixto Rodriquez, is one of America's best, "unknown" singer/songwriters. Despite producing two excellent studio albums in the early 1970's, commercial success alluded him. He found a regular job, bought a modest home and spent his life in a working class neighborhood in Detriot. Many years later, much to his surprise, his daughter discovered he had a FANatrical following in South Africa, Australia and several other nations around the world. Like many musicians, he did not receive the financial reward he had earned, however he did embark upon several world tours to connect with his enthusiastic worldwide fanbase. I showcase his music today along with other 1970's Rock greats Jimi Hendrix and Bob Dylan. Also in included is another "greatly overlooked" artist from 1970's, the incomparable Nick Drake. Thanks to WCRS for allowing local Columbus Ohio producers to create unique and high quality radio shows not available on conventional FM Clear Channel Radio.

I’ll be playing jazz of all styles; hard bop, vocal, fusion, big band, latin, etc. Anything with a jazz influence may be a candidate. I’ve been collecting music all of my adult life and now have the opportunity to share it. Also, there will be a lot of Ohio area artists, past and present. You can catch it live on Saturday and Thursday nights (Thurs. is a repeat) from 8-10PM EST at WGRN.org. Or on Sunday nights from 9-11PM EST at WCRSFM.org.
