Tonight's Jazz feature spotlights the perennially underrated trumpeter Kenny Dorham. His Birthday Anniversary was August 30, 1924 in Fairfield, Texas and he died of kidney disease in New York on December 5,1972 at age 48. Dorham now his the recognition and the honors that eluded him in his lifetime like many music and artistic masters. Tonight's Jazz Feature is by a short lived group that Kenny Dorham formed in early 1956 called "The Jazz Prophets" and this album was their first recorded outing and it's one fine debut. 4 of the 5 tunes are Dorham compositions as well and the slow ballad feature is the Billie Holiday classic "Don't Explain" soulfully interpreted by Kenny.

In honor of Kenny Dorham The Jazz Show presents The Jazz Prophets......enjoy!
