SOUNDS LIKE JAZZ

SOUNDS LIKE JAZZ - JAZZPODS

SOUNDS LIKE JAZZ brings an amazing mix of swing, pop, blues and classic jazz recordings of the ‘Mid-Century’, from 1962 and beyond. Each podcast has topical stories mixed with musical items guaranteed to relax and raise a smile during the morning break.
Whatever it takes, ‘SOUNDS LIKE JAZZ’ let you sit back, relax and enjoy your well deserved rest this morning.
JAZZPOD is the name given to each episode. The name is taken from the collective name for a group of dolphins.
Dolphins swim in groups. Each dolphin is free to twist , turn , dive or reach for the heavens in any way they wish. In the midst of all this improvisation there is a common movement which keeps them swinging together in close harmony. The collective term for this is a POD. Each JAZZPOD episode hopes to do the same and so does every group of Jazz musicians we hear. All we have to do is sit back and marvel at the sound and relax with a cup of tea or coffee, some chunky biscuits, and a comfy chair.
So when it’s time for mid- morning rest why not enjoy a 30 minute break and listen to some relaxing music and chat with one of these SOUNDS JAZZ LIKE episodes.

Hello and welcome to JAZZPOD SEVEN.
Immerse yourself in ‘SOUNDS LIKE JAZZ’, where the soulful tunes of all the greats of the mid-century become your heartbeat.
Have you heard how Thomas Hardy is able to use the words and rhythm of his poems in order to express the physical sensations he is describing? Its like experiencing the emotion of sound in a soulful piece of jazz.
Today we have the atmospheric voice of Julie London, Kenny Burrell with his own sophisticated style of bluesy jazz, some samba feeling with Getz & Byrd and my hopes that the BBC have not deleted the 33 years of, 'The Best of Jazz', hosted by Humphery Lyttleton!
