Anton Schwartz:
Just discovered your jazz page via the guestbook you set up for Tony. Listening to "Radiant Blue" as I type. You might think about getting in touch with John Clayton to see if he can't get you into the Lionel Hampton International Jazz Festival here next February. Based on what I'm hearing, you'd be a great fit, and I'll bet you'd enjoy it immensely.

Anton Schwartz Clear Channel has decided that people don't like Smooth Jazz enough any more and have replaced KKSF, its flagship Smooth Jazz station, with a Classic Rock station called 103.7 The Band. Personally, I'm not sorry to see KKSF go; I'd rather listen to classic rock than smooth jazz any day. Still, I can't imagine the airwaves need another station playing the Stones and the Who. Hang in there, KCSM!
