I had the pleasure to sit down and chat with this wonderful vocalist discussing a wide array of topics. This is part 1 of 4 of our chat together.
For many years I have always wanted to do a show about relatives. This is the first in a multi part series dealing with various relatives. On today’s show we will be listening to four songs that deal with family. Enjoy!

One day I was thinking up a topic for my next podcast. I was wondering how many jazz songs were out there that dealt with cake. In this first of four episodes I will be featuring songs that deal with cake. In the fourth episode I decided to add some ice cream to the cake so to speak so I feature some tracks that deal with ice cream. All in good fun! Enjoy.
