Coverage of Wayman’s career and the Service to Celebrate His Life

Hope you’re having a fun and safe holiday weekend. This week we’re featuring Craig Chaquico’s new one, “Follow The Sun.” His first CD of original material since 2004 on his new label, Shanachie. He is again working with long time collaborator Ozzie Ahlers and he gets into more electric guitar on this one. It’s got a heavy Latin influence but that highly identifiable Chaquico sound is there in abundance. And of course we will be playing some of Wayman Tisdales best tracks over the next few weeks and beyond.
We’ll miss you, Wayman, but your spirit shines on!
