 Some fellow listees might be interested in the following program that was broadcast yesterday on BBC 3: "The end of October 2010 saw the 120th anniversary of the birth of one of the most colourful and lively figures in jazz - Jelly Roll Morton. So to commemorate that anniversary, Alyn Shipton explores some of the musical legacies of the self-proclaimed inventor of jazz. Alyn Shipton looks at some of Morton's forerunners (including Louis Moreau Gottschalk and Scott Joplin) with help from the pianist Philip Martin, and at Morton's own musical style - with comment from one of the world's foremost authorites on classic jazz and ragtime - Keith Nichols".It will be available for listening until Feb. 27th at the following site:  http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b00yrhf7   Regards,  Bert Thompson
