Top 50+ Jazz Albums for the Week of 13 February 2012

Be Good ~ Gregory PorterHi everyone! I'm back from being in Los Angeles for GRAMMY week events. It was a whirlwind of entertaining events again this year, coupled with the unexpected shock of learning about Whitney Houston's death while I was at the Special Merit Awards presentation Saturday afternoon. May she be at peace.

Congratulations to both Christian McBride and Terri Lyne Carrington for their GRAMMY wins!

I will be wrapping up my thoughts about the winners of the GRAMMY Jazz categories in a few days. Stay tuned for that!

Now, back to our regulary scheduled programming. :) This is the 13 February 2012 US/Canada radio airplay list from JazzWeek.com.
