Jun 8th Local Jazz Corner 20th Anniversary
Jazz Live began in 1977 as a wild idea of telecom students Scott Harrison and Jackson Ratliff. The original 'live' concerts were intended to inspire and entertain and that mission has remained true to this day. Cut to September 14th, 2004. Jazz Live gets huge, thanks to a grant from Cox Communications and support from the Corporation for Public Broadcasting. This financial support will continue to help bring major acts to Jazz Live.
Vince Outlaw, host of Jazz Live, says every new era needs a Weblog, so he made one. Click here to see the Jazz Live Weblog.
