I grew up on 50's pop and then as a teenager on pop rock, acid rock and heavy metal. I started listening to more blues as I entered my 20's and then, in the very early 70's, I stumbled on Ed Beach's show, Just Jazz, one night while scanning the radio dial in Boston. I was hooked immediately. I found his show, and jazz, irresistible. It quickly became my favorite musical form I have been listening to jazz almost every day since. And I have never forgotten Ed Beach's Just Jazz since I found it that night scanning the dial, 44 years ago.
1967 for me! I became a "BEACH-A-HOL-IC" Listened every day! Incredible show! I've based my own Jazz Radio sho on Ed's style! Incidentally, I'm on live every Saturday & Sunday at 12 Noon, Pacific, on www.pulin4jazz.org
