[Dixielandjazz] RADIO OKOM substitutes

Yes, Rich Conaty is a great choice. Just like the dear departed Ray Smith, Rich is very informative and educational, as is Dave Radlauer. I always enjoy background info about the sidemen, composer and tasty tidbits of those peppy period pop tunes. (You can tell I miss Ray Smith.)
Thanks,
Art

Great stuff from the teens to the early 40s can be heard on Rich Conaty's
"Big Broadcast" on WFUV.org, Sunday evenings 8-12 PM 
WRDV.org plays a variety of nice stuff during the week, depending on likes
of the volunteer DJs. Weekday people favor jazz/swing and Rich Lagerman's
Band Box Thursday's at 6 PM is a real treat.

Hi Don: 3 stations that i listen to are, (using tunein radio app on my
android smartphone): 1 . WGHB Jazz Decades (Ray Smith Archives) 2. Classic
Jazz on JAZZRADIO and 3. (via Live 365) Dixieland Gumbo.

There are also podcasts...try Judy Carmichael (great stride player) who
interviews contemporary jazz artists ala Marian McPartland. One of her
recent shows had Chico Hamilton which i think every drummer should hear.

Brian Harvey (England) and Peter Cowden (Australian Jazzology) used to
have podcasts, but I am not sure if they are still active. Jeff Healey had a
radio show which may still be available.

Of local interest Bay Area interest is Mal Sharpe on KCSM every Sunday at
9PM. He features trad jazz along with his dry sense of humor.

Another great source is Dave Radlauer's mp3 radio broadcasts:

I also listen to Rhapsody and Spotify which carry a wide variety of jazz
recordings. You have to pay $10 a month for these services, but they are
worth it. Spotify has a great collection of English Trad Jazz selections and
other European groups.

Hope this helps fill in the void created by the downfall of Radio OKOM.

Good Luck!
Art Wood
