Hello. 'Local lad', pianist Christian Cox was a real 'success story' from this years 'Fringe' as part of the Upton Jazz Festival. Well coming up on 'The Jazz Hour' this week, I'll have a track from Christian, details of a 'Christmassy CD' that he's just released and details of where you can see him performing live next Saturday afternoon.

Another 'jazzer' who keeps 'turning out' good material is our very own Kiera Battersby who has been back in the studio to record her latest single, and that will be coming up on this weeks' programme.

Amongst the birthday from the past seven days, I've got tracks from Connee Boswell, Cassandra Wilson and Dave Brubeck and a trio led by pianist Bill Evans is track 5 in the long running theme '100 to 1'.

''Love is in the Room' is the title of a super 'Album of the Month' for December featuring vocalist Sarah Eyden with some super piano 'backing' courtesy of Denis King.

Well that should just about get me through the programme for this week. 9pm on Sunday evening is the time to tune into Longside Radio for some super jazz and I do hope you'll join me.

Enjoy that Christmas shopping!!!
