With Tracks from Lena Horne, Nina Simone, and Delfeayo Marsalis
Clare Teal presents an hour of big band and swing, featuring a classic from Duke Ellington and some newer swing icons like Dayme Arocena. We play three back-to-back requests from our listeners, and for the Night Cap head back to 1960 with Sam Cooke's 'London by Night'.
