Radio legend Hazen Schumacher died on July 18 at the age of 88, Michigan Radio reports. He was on the air for more than 30 years, and his show, Jazz Revisited, was on the air for more than 30 years, and his show introduced a generation to jazz. Back in the 1960s, Schumacher was working at the local radio station at the University of Michigan. And he wanted to create a program that would reintroduce people to the music he felt like audiences had largely forgotten: a very specific era of great, classic jazz recorded between 1917 and 1947. “Someone has called the programs an audio time capsule from that period, which is maybe a pretty good description,” Schumacher said in recent German documentary about the show.
