Concerned about Mama Jazz
I have noticed over the last several month that the Tuesday editions of Mama Jazz's Traditional Night seem to be recordings of past shows, not live as in the past. I know she was ill early last year and wasn't on for quite a while. Has she ever come back to live shows or if not yet, will she?

[Program Director John Hingsbergen replies: "You are correct that Mama's shows have been recorded lately. Her health has not been great but we have high hopes that she'll be doing some "live" shows in the near future. In the past year, there have been very few weeks when she was able to come in for all four nights of her normally-"live" show but I think the last time she was at the station was in early or mid-December. I'll pass your inquiry along to Mama. I know she'll be glad to know that you, and others, are wondering."]
