Carmen Lundy ~ ChangesHi everyone! This is the 20 February 2012 US/Canada radio airplay list from JazzWeek.com. 

I'm not quite sure why Sir Paul's album is on the list for airplay this week but apparently jazz radio around the US and Canada felt a need to put it in rotation. I mean, it's not like there isn't a plethora of other known and unknown jazz artists to choose from.  I'm not dissing Sir Paul (as I did enjoy his performances during GRAMMY week) but, com'on. 

Rant over. :)
