Monday morning highlights:
WSIE 88.7 FM
- Ann Springs-Nat Adderley (This is how you maintain a steady walking rhythm while giving ample space for saxophone, trumpet, and piano solos.)
- Stomp Your Feet-JJ Sansaverino (Uptempo smooth jazz guitar with a bite.)
KCFV 89.5 FM
- Adia-Sarah McLachlan (The sing-along quality of the chorus makes this McLachlan's most appealing hit, in my opinion.)
KLOU 103.3 FM
- Time After Time-Cyndi Lauper (Lyrically, this holds up in any era. With its timeless sentiments about always being there for someone, that's not surprising. There's a reason why a wide range of artists--Miles Davis, Tuck & Patti, Erin Bode, and Bill Baird, among others--have covered it.)
K297BI 107.3 FM, a.k.a. WFUN-HD2
- Jean Sibelius: Symphony No. 5 in E-flat major, Op. 82L III. Allegro molto (Boston Symphony Orchestra/Colin Davis, conductor) (This symphony's gripping finale is brassy and dramatic. The crescendos in this performance are so commanding that I started to turn the volume down, even though I was wearing headphones and not disturbing anyone.)
