Today is “Migratory Bird Day.” And, in our neck of the woods, it’s “The World Series of Birding.” Seriously. You go out and see how many different bird species you can identify. And since birds are always up before the sun, you better be out pretty darn early if you’re going to catch that early worm – and the record for the most species spotted.
So in honor of the birds, tonight’s show will feature lots of swinging music – some about birds – that will have you flapping your wings with joy. The Jazzy Soundcheck features Quincy Jones and Maynard Ferguson. After that all the REAL fun starts and you’ll get to enjoy Michael Buble, Bing Crosby, Anita O’Day, Nancy Wilson, Pink Martini, Nina Simone, The Ventures, Carl Perkins, Glen Miller, Groucho Marx, and a whole lot more.
