FM dial scan highlights CCIX

 Five Sunday standouts:

KDHX 88.1 FM

  • Under The Chestnut Tree-Seamus Egan (This is yet another contemplative gem of an acoustic tune from multi-instrumentalist Egan.  Also recommended: Everything on Egan's "When Juniper Sleeps" CD, especially "Masons Apron/My Love Is In America" and "Along The Way.")

WSIE 88.7 FM

  • New Bossa-Les Sabler (A steady breeze of smooth jazz guitar.)
  • Love Won't Let You Down-Swing Out Sister (Appealing vocals, as usual, that fall somewhere between Basia and '60s R&B.  I'm pleased that WSIE plays tracks from the group's "Where Our Love Grows" CD.  Also recommended: "Let The Stars Shine.")

KWMU 90.7 FM

  • Alone Together-Christian McBride with Hank Jones (A strong melody that pops for bass and piano.)

KSHE 94.7 FM

  • Let's Live For Today-The Grass Roots (For your daily dose of 1967 hedonism...)
