Jim McLeod's Jazz Tracks is a compilation album of jazz music recorded for Jim McLeod's long running ABC-FM radio show Jazztrack.[1] The lead track "Windows of Arquez" by Bryce Rohde And Bruce Cale was at the time the shows theme song.[2]
Reception
[edit]The album was nominated as the Best Jazz Album at the 1990 ARIA Awards but lost out to Browne, Costello & Grabowsky with their album Six By Three.
