RIP to the legends @lalo_schifrin and Walter Scott of @themightywhispers who passed away in the last week or so - we dig into Lalo's back cat of CRIME JAZZ (tm) hour one including some our favourite tracks that use his tunes as sample sources, after that Kirk's goodies including a brand new track from local jazzy house crew @after_ours_official, a salute to Walter Scott, and some birthday tunes for the great Phyllis Hyman.
Hour three we had a super special pre-release listen (in the company of the excellent Kenny Sterling) to the Orbits LP from The Circling Sun (released Friday 11 July). Shit is incredible! They will be performing at the Karangahape Road branch of Flying Nun record store 3pm Saturday 12 July), and the record will be available in either limited edition green or classic black vinyl from all the best stores: Dusty Crates, Stack Records, Flying Nun, Flying Out, Southbound, Real Groovy, Marbecks, Ulo (Raglan) and or course on the Circling Sun bandcamp. Buy that!

Blind Mango Chutney, & Miss Dom slide into a New York Groove - following Blind Mango's trippy opening track. The pair are then joined by a Special Studio Guest Jason Wald - Jason is a Kiwi & also a 95 BFM Alumni, Resident Lower East Sider (NYC) & Founder & Host of the East Village Jazz Show.
The Jazz Gang get into a real cool Jazz Hangout during the course of the show - jamming some sweet tunes. Jason as Guest Selector shares a bunch of his favorite jazz jams - & for the most part - Jason's selections are centered around his & the station's New York Neighborhood of the Lower East Side.
DJ Sassy joins & Hosts the Jazz Gig Guide & also gets the crew percolating - by turning on a few rounds of super smooth, & awesome Expresso Martinis ! Miss Dom follows the Jazz Gig Guide with a Vinyl Fair Guide.
Blind Mango rounds off by paying tribute to the recently passed Lalo Schifrin - & then hits a high as he Fizzes at his recently purchased VG+ Gene Ammons vinyl.
