August is Jazz Month in Houston. Started by the late master drummer and founder of the Summer Jazz Workshop, Bubbha Thomas in 1970, it was made official by Mayor Louie Welch. It is a time of the year that the Houston Jazz Spotlight focuses on the very talented musicians who keep the Houston Jazz scene vibrant. Today we will spotlight two cats who do just that, master pianist, Sir Bob Henschen and hurculean bassist, David Craig. Im dubbing these two the Houston Jazz Sentinels and on today's show we will feature music from one of their albums in it entirety.
The Houston Jazz Spotlight is a labor of love by Visual Artist, Jazz Historian, and DJ, Tierney L. Malone.
