Perhaps Discovering Music was not the right place for this. I can see why playing a selection of JRM's piano and band records would not have fitted the bill here, and it was good to hear contemporory musicians do the honours. But I longed for just one example of the hot stuff - maybe playing out with this version of Steamboat Stomp.

I normally listen to this show every week. But I didn't this week.

It was Jazz.
