What starts with funk, and then travels to distant corners of the jazz universe? It’s What the Funk? Astral Jazz Travels, and your host Shinytop brings it to you every Saturday evening from 8 to 10. And sometimes, local musicians wander in to join Shinytop to talk music.
Now retired, Shinytop has produced and hosted a nationally syndicated independent program on peace and justice issues, and has been a news reporter and Morning Edition host at two NPR stations. Now here on AshevilleFM, he shares his love of all kinds of music. If you have requests/feedback, email him at shinytop@ashevillefm.org.
