WNXC/Radio Free Raleigh, taking our new weekend mix of blues, bluesy rock, jazz, and soulful classics out for a spin. Thanks for coming along on the ride ;-)
On May 12, 2024, acclaimed saxophonist David Sanborn died. Mr. Sanborn had been living with prostate cancer since 2018 but was nonetheless still an inspiring musician. He will be missed. The New Directions In Music newsletter has published an appreciation of David Sanborn. WNXC asked its author, Marshall Bowden, to share his thoughts with you in his own voice. Here they are.
