An uncle of mine is a 70 year old ex-Catholic priest from the west side of Chicago. He has had a life-long love affair with Jazz music and a voice that is almost too perfect for the radio. My brother and he decided to record a homemade radio show called The Best Of Jazz. So far they have recorded about 25 hour long segments that my brother is broadcasting through a radio steaming service in the Internet in a continuous loop. They add new shows all of the time. There is a limit to the amount of simultaneous listeners they can have at one time, but I have never been blocked from getting on there. Anyone interested in Jazz...experts, beginners, and everyone in between...might want to check it out. Here's how to tune in to the show:
1. Open up any MP3 player that supports MP3 streams, such as iTunes,Windows Media Player, or QuickTime.
2. Look for an option such as Open Stream or Open URL/Location.
3. Copy

My uncle's name is Fred Brandstrader. My brother: Bill O'Shea, Jr. Anyone wanting to contact the show for comments, requests or complaints can reach them here:

There are no commercials, no charges, no requests for donations. This is just something they do for the love of jazz. For some reason I thought some in the crowd here at bukowski.net might enjoy it.
