FREE JAZZ ALTOISTS on the Thursday Night Feature, Thursday 9 p.m.-midnight
This week's installment of the Thursday Night Feature focuses on free jazz 
alto saxophone players. The traditional heroes of free jazz are usually 
tenor players like Coltrane and Ayler; this show will shine the light on 
all of the talented alto players who have not garnered as much attention 
as they deserve over the years. The show will highlight the important 
innovators on the instrument, as well as underrecognized players like 
Sonny Simmons and Mike Osborne.

A discussion of timely topics with BILL on Northern Hemisphere Live, 
Sunday 5-7 pm.
This Sunday NHL's Bill Burton will host an open show with sundry topics 
relating to the current events of the day. Listeners are invited to call 
in and participate.

COREY PARKER on the Backyard BBQ, Sunday 7 p.m.
A special tasty BBQ treat! This week Corey Parker and his band will
perform live and discuss his debut CD, "Subliminal Souls," and other 
timely topics. As the son of Maceo Parker (Maceo's sax-brilliance was 
recognized early with James Brown), Corey has had the enviable experience 
growing up surrounded by stellar musicians. His music reflects the many 
influences in his life and displays the diversity that WXYC listeners 
especially love. Expect to hear CP move through hip-hop, r&b, salsa, rap, 
rock, funk, jazz -- some blended in a single tune; others, straight, no 
chaser.
