What kind of outreach programs are you currently developing at the station? We’re currently in contact with Kareem Abdul-Jabbar because he is a huge devo- tee of jazz music. Some of the projects he’s working on now are him connecting music from the 20s and 30s to hip-hop. Did you see him on Colbert Report playing bass with Colbert on sax? I did. That was the episode where he was trashing John Zorn for the grant he got. [Laughs] He and John Stewart, that is some funny s–.

There must have been 70 kids dancing to Ravi Coltrane, right in front of the stage and jumping so much time up and down. It was really great. And yet, I got more than one email on Mon- together. It was day complaining about how it was disrespectful to have the children jumping around and how the musicians must have hated it. I thought: Are you kidding because it was me?

I grew up all over and was exposed to radio all around the country. I did some college radio and did a few years of commercial radio and after a few years got really tired of the business – I did Top 40, MOR or the real easy listening. I did all that. But to bring my intermediate radio skills to a format of music that I re- ally love in the jazz capital of the world, there is not a day that I don’t look for- ward to going to work. Do you listen to other stations? I love to go back to my rock and roll days and listen to Ken Dashow at Q104. There is a station that I listen to over night – Joey Reynolds on WOR. This isn’t issue oriented, it’s entertainment oriented. So like on a Friday night, they’ll have a bunch of old comedians talking about working the Borscht Belt. They’ll be just sitting in a room telling stories and jokes. As a radio listener, they pull me right in. That is kind of my job within a jazz format.

I would have been closer to my are as listeners son, who lives in Ohio. About three weeks after I got out there I realized that appeals to me I had made a grave mistake. I didn’t realize that this that I already had was a real part of me. And [I missed] the people I’ve come to know over the last 24 because that is years. What’s that lyric that Bob Dylan wrote: I see a fellow stranger, help him “what good radio with his load/And don’t be so envious for the house across the road.

It makes me better because I sit in a little room every morning try to wake up people and get them on the road to work. It’s me and the news guy. If we were up at the Port Authority talking to imaginary people, they would have us com- mitted. The other night we had an event at Birdland with our Jazz Leadership Committee (which is a special level of donor) and Roni Ben-hur was playing with Ronnie Matthews on piano and Rufus Reid on bass. You run into people at these events and they say things like: My wife wakes up every morning with you and I’m okay with it. It’s interesting to talk about who they are, not who I am and not who Fats Waller is. To get inside their heads and find out who they are as listeners appeals to me because that is what good radio does. You play to the room and the people who play to the room best are the ones who usually have the most listeners. I’m just fortunate enough that my room is full of jazz fans. It’s my job and all of our jobs in jazz radio is to not just rely upon the mu- sic but to try and go that one step further and make that connection with peo- ple. So you got a mention in Terry Gibbs’ liner notes for Findin’ The Groove. That’s kind of cool. It’s the song “One Minute And 45 Seconds To Station Break.” He took five blues themes and tacked them together. I talked to him recently and he said: “I remembered what you said where nobody is making two-minute songs anymore and we need them desperately to do radio. They don’t all have to be two-min- ute songs, but we’ll do one for Gary Walker and everyone else who needs these short tunes. And the session went so well that the song came in at 1:45. You’ll have to adlib for 15.” [laughs] Funny s–, man. JW
