The Big Bands Play Jerome Kern

Song pluggers back in the 1920's used to promote songs from just about everyone trying to get their songs played whether they were good or bad. One composer who's songs were always good and made it into many Broadway shows was the late Jerome Kern.  Today's show features the music of Jerome Kern as played by many assorted big bands. We'll be hearing from many of your favorite bands as we learn a little bit about one of the greatest composers whose songs are part of the Great American Songbook, Jerome Kern.
