Chuy!

As someone who prefers his jazz with plenty of edge, I wish KCSM, "the Bay Area's Jazz Station," were a lot more adventurous in its programming. Which is not to say it is not a pleasant station to listen to almost any time of day. But KCSM has one genuine treasure, and that is Jesse "Chuy" Varela, host of the Latin Jazz show Sundays at 2. Jesse is amazingly knowledgeable, and has nearly impeccable taste. Plus, his enthusiasm is truly infectious. It's pronounced Chewy... You can listen on-line.
