Two Sundays ago I was hanging out at free form radio station Radio Valencia in San Francisco, and in walked jazz singer/guitarist Meredith Axelrod. Axelrod spoke with the Gramophoney Baloney show’s DJ McShmormac, then schmoozed some more with DJ Ferrara and Malderor and Dr. Junk.
Of course we all wanted Axelrod to sing. As a bonus, she whistled as well, doing a great rendition of “Blues in a Bottle” by Prince Albert Hunt. You can enjoy the live music at the end of this podcast (around 2:36:45 by my mp3 download).
If you want to hear more of Meredith, she’s posted her gig schedule here. I took some photos of her performance, montaged below.

Great post and photos! So good to meet you. Didn’t realize Meredith “schmoozed some more with DJ Ferrara and Malderor and Dr. Junk.” Was pretty sure she did the show with you, Cormac, and me, then she and I went to a party and dinner. Hope to X paths with you again.
I thought she chatted with them for a little while in the interim between shows . . .
. . . at least that was my recollection.
