4/2/2008 1:42:19 PM: Chasin' the Blues (by Bill Rowton) When living in Corpus I would attend the World Series of Jazz in San Antonio during the late 70's. Kenny Davern and Bob Wilber were the intro before the "battle" between the Fountain and Cullum bands. Apex Blues brings back the memories. Are there CD's of those shows?

1/3/2008 1:08:42 PM: Your Quality (by Joe) You don't have any firm hold on th quality of your presentanton.While presenting it as live, you are in serious question when it comes to a live feed. Take Austin city Limits as an example.
5/31/2007 7:45:13 PM: Chasin'' the Blues (by Magdaleno, Jorge) Disfruté mucho los preview's. Se oye verdaderamente espectacular, ojalá un día pudieran venir a Mexico.

12/28/2006 2:52:50 PM: Chasin the Blues (by Robert Dietterle) A real easy listening Jazz collection from the riverwalk jass program. Jim and the band are great as aleays - you also have to see them in person!
11/10/2006 4:54:52 PM: Dancing at my desk! (by Jackievanly) So well done! Simply Fun, Fabulous, Fantastic, Far Out...need I say more?
10/4/2006 11:07:04 PM: Chasing the Blues (by Babybare) Sexily swinging!!! I have always loved the JCB and always will....kissss
9/19/2006 2:57:52 PM: Chasin' The Blues (by Art & Stephanie Stevenson) My compliments on the recording quality of Chasin' The Blues! The horns have great tone - a real natural sound, as if we are in the room with you. Great choice of songs too. Topsy Chapman really nails it on her features! We now have four of your CDs and will be purchasing more. See you next time we get to San Antone...we had a ball last time we came to the Landing!
9/17/2006 6:10:33 PM: New CD Chasin the Blues (by Jim Marold) Sounds great. Can't wait until I get my copy so I can cruise down the road listening. I played the Fireworks CD when I had three 25 year olds in the car and the boy loved it. The two girls were not impressed but that their opinion. You need to have movement in your bones to listen to Happy Jazz.
9/2/2006 10:29:22 PM: JCJB--great music and entertainers (by Diana Gibson Bonham) Your music is still the best! I wish I still lived in SA so I could come hang out like I used to.

12/12/2005 8:09:34 AM: Live from the Landing (by Rich Grebb) The 1 hour program on Sunday evenings is my favorite. And the new CD-Chasin the Blues is wonderful (Great!). A favor, I have been in SA 3x and have never been able to see the JCJB. Is there a schedule of shows I can access. Do you ever travel to the Phila. area? Thanks, Rich (rgrebb@ptd.net)
