Tonight, we will be bringing you part 1 of an encore broadcast of Jazz With Bob Parlocha from the archives of WFMT in Chicago. Bob Parlocha was a jazz radio institution who began spinning disks for KJAZ-FM over four decades ago here in the San Francisco Bay Area. After the demise of KJAZ, Bob began syndicating, ~ Jazz with Bob Parlocha~ through the new WFMT Jazz Network.
This program filled the late-night airwaves in many cities across the USA bringing that KJAZ esthetic nationwide for about 20 years until Bob's death in 2015. On this the tenth anniversary of his passing, we salute Bob Parlocha by presenting an archived program from his acclaimed Jazz With Bob Parlocha on WFMT.
