Wild Brothers Play Jazz

Dave and Ken Wild, each a KTUH Tuesday night jazz show host in the early 1970s, performed two sets at Vitello’s in Studio City, CA on August 4, 2011. Brothers Dave (on piano) and Ken (on bass) were joined by Eric Marienthal on saxophones and Ray Brinker on drums. Here is a link to a YouTube video from that night. Ken is a former member of Seawind (they played under cover as Limp Jelly Beans on KTUH’s live show, The Pakalolo Patch, in the early 70′s) and is now a studio musician in Los Angeles. Dave, who led the Dave Wild Trio (they played a number of UH events) and recently retired, still plays piano and lives in north Texas. Dave promises that they both will attend the next KTUH staff reunion.
