I like jazz and enjoy a local volunteer radio station in NYC, WKCR. WKCR will be playing 24 hours of Ornette Coleman all day Thursday March 9 and 24 hours of Bix Beiderbecke on Friday March 10, 2006. These are 2 of the annual 14 birthday broadcasts that pre-empt regular programming on WKCR on those days. WKCR is at 89.9 FM in the New York area and online at http://www.WKCR.org
Happy listening.

Thanks. Ornette Coleman is underappreciated, perhaps because his music is not for the fainthearted.

That figures.  Faint-hearted people can't hardly get a break these days.  So much entertainment media is for those NOT faint of heart and dammit, it's not fair.  I'd like to see something made specifically for the faint of heart because I've watched too many friends fall over dead thanks to non-faint of heart music.  If you've ever experienced the horror of friend's heart bursting apart as steely-hearted music blares over the speakers you know what I mean.  Nobody should ever have to experience that.  Be careful out there.

Probably because most people like to hear at least the semblance of some melody in a song.

I thought that was what Yanni (when he's not beating up girlfriends), Kenny G, and Celine Dion were for?

They are not for the faints of heart.  They are for the faints of ears.
