June 1, 2008 Slavic & Latin Jazz
I was glad to have Mietek Glinkowski and friends back on my show. Mietek played his vitar, which is like, yet different, from an electric violin. Mietek hails from Poland and now lives in Raleigh, NC. He was joined by his good friend, Alex Gorodezky, who is from the Ukraine and lives in Raleigh. Nic Slaton played the upright bass. Nic went to NC Central University and studied jazz.

My jazz radio show features the sounds of NC jazz musicians both of the past and the present. I always enjoy when the musicians bring their instruments with them and play live during my show. WCOM can be heard in the Carrboro, NC area at 103.5 fm. The door is always open and I enjoy people stopping by to hear the music and to say 'hi'. You can listen in from any where in the world by going to our web-link on the WCOM website at www.communityradio.coop.
