Thanks Marty, today we’re going to hear Lisa Ahia sing a Leon Russell song.
After I went back to school I spent a lot of time playing jazz and listening to local jazz musicians. I decided to do an ASU Jazz Festival, Bebopalooza!, on campus and featuring some great jazz by ASU students, alumni, and faculty.
With my close ties to KASU I wanted the station involved too and they were glad to help, both with promotion and then with booking some of the bands.
On October 15, 2011, we had Bebopalooza! outside of the Student Union. Closing the festival it was Gary Gazaway and The Memphis Jazz All Stars featuring Lisa Ahia singing. They played a great set with everyone thrilled by Lisa Ahia’s vocals.

Thanks Marty, it's so great to be with you all on Arkansas Roots playing songs From The Archives of Something Blue.
On October 23, 2010, Bebopalooza, sponsored by KASU and the Music Department was held at The Edge Coffeehouse right here in Jonesboro. The Ad Hoc Combo played a blues I cowrote with Richard Murray called "Not There Yet". Featuring Ron Horton, trumpet; David Hall, sax; Craig Collison, vibes; Corey Emerson, bass; Mike Overall, drums; and Hairy Larry, guitar we delivered on a slow blues. Here we are now playing "Not There Yet".
