As you read this, you are probably aware that we are somewhere deep in our on-air pledge drive (and wondering when it'll be over!). I thought I'd take this opportunity to make the connection between the pledge you make—and what happens in our "back office" in order to get your thank you gift to you.

Before the pledge drive begins, Juanita and Chris the KCSM Web Team are working frantically to make sure all the gifts are on the web, and that the pledge process is as easy as possible to use. As pledges are made, the Web Team are forwarding information about totals and gifts to the on air announcers, and the fulfillment and membership departments.

When the pledge drive is in full swing, the membership department, headed by Medelline Lowe and her team of student assistants, Prakashni, Kagure, and Vernice begin the task of charging all the credit card pledges that have been called in, mailing out invoices to those wishing to pay by check, and then updating the membership database with the most current member information such as changes of address, new expiration dates and mailing out our monthly On Air Guide.

As the checks come in, Sam Haun, our "money guy" makes sure they are deposited and the proper information is sent to membership for processing. He always appreciates it when folks send back their invoice. Trying to match up checks to existing pledges—with no other information—is a challenge to say the least!

As a very small station, we cannot afford to have a surplus of pledge items on hand, and therefore are unable to pre-order from our vendors. Instead, our Fulfillment Supervisor Lavine Mar is anxiously watching as the pledges come in so she can quickly place orders to our vendors. As soon as the items arrive in our offices, Lavine, along with her student assistant Joshna work to shipped them right back out to our members.

We try to thank, process and ship over 3,000 pledges and gifts each drive. Sometimes we do a great job, sometimes not so great. But if you're ever wondering what happened to your gift, where your guide is, or why you're suddenly getting three copies of your renewal notice—please don't hesitate to give us a call! We're small, we're here and we'd love to talk with you! Our membership phone number is (650) 524-6921, or you can send us a message at [email protected].

And, as always, thanks for your support!

Sinclair Crockett

Business and Fundraising Manager

THE ANNALS OF JAZZ WITH RICHARD HADLOCKSundayS aT 7 pm

The sound of surprise describes both jazz itself and the enduring premise of "The Annals of Jazz." Since 1959, host Richard Hadlock has been improvising on historical themes and bringing forth worthy performers—from Armstrong to Zorn. Each Sunday, we may find Annals in Europe, Asia, Latin America or Back of Town anywhere.

From 'soundies' and 'musical shorts' to full-length Hollywood films, jazz and jazz musicians have appeared in films throughout the decades. The Jim Cullum Jazz Band and friends perform hot jazz from movie soundtracks, with favorite picks for viewing jazz in the movies from writer Scott Yanow, author of Jazz on Film.

In Jazz Age Harlem, the rise of black culture produced talents like Langston Hughes and Duke Ellington. But this ‘Black Renaissance’ wasn’t limited to men. Actress Carol Woods joins The Jim Cullum Jazz Band in this salute to Black History Month as they introduce the artistic, fascinating women that launched New York’s great social revolution of the 1920s.

2/9 John Coltrane/Johnny Hartman with guest host Wycliffe Gordon

2/16 Frank Foster and Songs of Romance

2/23 Masters of the Mallet

The well-heeled moves of the danzones and the percussive calls of the sons montunos spill into the streets when maestro Paquito D'Rivera (pictured) leads a musical journey through the folklore of his native Cuba. Sonero and guitarist David Oquendo, Las Hermanas Márquez and percussionist Candido Camero join in this Afro-Cuban Fiesta.

Three modern masters of the mallet take the stage at Dizzy’s for one solid hour of good vibes. Bobby Hutcherson, Joe Locke and Stefon Harris each take a turn on the stage of Dizzy's. Catch the vibe from Dizzy's club.

No modern jazz musician has a sound more influential yet less attainable than saxophonist John Coltrane (picutred). His pure tone was established by the mid-50s, playing in Miles Davis' hard bop quintet. Coltrane's career was characterized by his constant, exponential advancement in improvisational technique and ideas. His sound reached its peak in his quartet of the 60s, which has served as a model for modern jazz ensembles for the last forty years.

A musician's musician whose original approach to the keyboard has made him the envy of virtually every pianist in jazz. He was part of the Harlem stride scene perfected by pianists James P. Johnson and Thomas Fats Waller. This show features rare tape of Smith (pictured) talking and playing.

John Coltrane's never-ending quest for musical improvement and self-awareness distinguished his playing and compositions in the 60s. It was driven by an increasing spirituality, most potently unveiled in his 1964 recording A Love Supreme. Coltrane later created music of great turbulence and ecstasy, and he remains a powerful inspiration to artists of all disciplines.

Outdoors, they are Chris (pictured, left) on bass and Dan (pictured, right) on drums, with Mike DeMicco on guitar and Chuck Lamb on piano, opening the Detroit International Jazz Festival.

Ron Carter (pictured with Marian, left) has set the standard for modern jazz bass players. He rose to fame with Miles Davis and went on to play with Stan Getz, Coleman Hawkins, and Thelonious Monk. His recording work spans 2000 albums and he’s had equally successful careers as a bandleader, composer and educator. He joins McPartland for standards and a pair of Oscar Pettiford tunes – Bohemia After Dark and Blues in the Closet.

This month marks the 122nd anniversary of the birth of James Herbert “Eubie” Blake (pictured.) He was the last known original ragtime pianist when he appeared on the second season of Piano Jazz at the age of 93. On this program from 1980, Blake remembers his vaudeville days, writing classics Charleston Rag and I’m Just Wild About Harry. Blake and McPartland get together for duets on St. Louis Blues and The Star Spangled Banner.

On vibes and marimba, Harris (pictured) and his super-talented group meld jazz, soul, hiphop and gospel on “an imaginatively orchestrated and vigorously propelled collection of tunes” [Washington Post] at the KC Jazz Club.

February finds all of the KCSM-FM staff in the final throes of our winter membership drive. Remember that we count of each of you to keep your jazz station alive and well!

We are also in the middle of a construction zone on campus. Thanks to the voters in San Mateo County, a bond measure has funded most of the construction projects you see on campus. When the spring semester began, a major area on the south side of the campus became accessible. The main Health and Wellness building will open next month, and our building's restrooms are being remodeled! Yes, that graffiti from the Nixon years is gone, and much nicer restrooms should be completed by March. My apologies to those of you that came during our pledge drive and had to go to adjacent buildings for restroom facilities. The Spring drive will be better!

We are doing some of our own remodeling in the FM studios; moving equipment around and consolidating some processes. This work should be completed around March as well, and I hope some of you will volunteer to help out during our spring drive and see the great changes we have made.

Thank you for your support!
