Hope you all got a chance to listen in this week, it was (I want to write "kick-ass" for some reason, but the phrase isn't really appropriate, so I'll write "great" instead) great. 

Greg - aka Afternoons in Stereo, who presents Urban Modernists on CFMU (Thursdays 10:30 pm) programmed the show and we co-hosted live.  The result?  Some amazing Japanese jazz, old and new.  So if you want it, go to http://cfmu.mcmaster.ca and download the archive for OA on Feb 1.  I'll try and post it here soon.  In the meantime, here's the playlist!
