Fans of Occasional Jazz (and I am one) know that over the many years this talented group has performed, the talent is always there but the group is often changing.  The occasional Carleton College student joins the group, sometimes for many months.  For this Friday’s Occasional appearance, some of those (now-graduated) Carls return to join Steve Kelly in Jazz once again.  It’s a special Maize and Blue edition of Occasional Jazz.
