Welcome to a brand new radio show. Jake Longwell of Quality Radio Productions has resurrected a series which he hosted locally in Geneva, New York for several years. This time, though, Jazz and More is produced for WQNA community radio in Springfield, Illinois. It's not known yet whether the series will be syndicated to other stations, but, stations are welcome to submit inquiries if interested, and syndication may be considered at a later time. Even if you don't live in Springfield, you can still listen to each week's show via this website. Please enjoy the new show, and tell your friends about the program.
