On my recommendation, Walter Parker came to KWMU in 1985 to produce and host Jazzstream , a show featuring traditional and mainstream jazz. I moved to Sunday nights with Bebop and Beyond in 1985. Wallace, Rod Abid and Sean Collins, who engineered for me during the 1985-1992 period have all moved on to NPR in Washington. I have done my own engineering since 1992. The Jazz Unlimited format started in 1988.
All shows are live with the occasional glitches and embarrassments.
Charlie Menees taught a class on St. Louis jazz history that led me to do a lot of research into the subject. We obtained a grant for the research. This led to a documentary on St. Louis jazz that ran for 18 hours of air time in 1987. The short history of the St. Louis Black Artists' Group comes from interviews of that period. Eddie, without doubt, was one of the major influences on my life.
