Meet DJ Jazz Man
What is your favorite kind of music? Rap, pop, country, heavy metal? How about jazz? No?? Well, the Kruger family _ mom, dad and even the two sons _ would like you to consider a change of musical taste.
Every Saturday night from 6 to 9 p.m., dad Jon, mom Mary and sons Joel and Jordan co-host the Charles Vann Memorial Jazz Party on community radio station WMNF-FM FM, where they volunteer.
WMNF is a listener-supported station that has been on the air in the Tampa Bay area for almost 22 years. The station plays a wide variety of music, including Latin, reggae, hip-hop, Indian, calypso, rock, jazz and much more. The show is named for the station's popular longtime jazz host Charles Vann, who died in after 17 years of bringing jazz to WMNF listeners.
For Jon and Mary Kruger and Joel, 13, and Jordan, 10, putting jazz on the air is not just about their love of jazz, it is about spending time together as a family.
On a recent stormy Saturday night they could be found at the station, in a tiny recording studio reached through a maze of narrow hallways, around boxes and chairs, amid walls and walls of CDs and records. They like to talk about jazz as well as listen to it, to tell what sets it apart from other music.
