Bud's Corner was a Jazz radio show, running continuously Sunday evenings from 1983 to 1993 on Prairie Public Radio in Bismarck, ND.  In each episode, Robert "Bud" Lundberg shares the life and music of a musician through his deep knowledge and personally curated music collection.  Throughout his lifetime Bud meticulously brought to life the history of Jazz. He attended many now-famous jazz festivals, scoured record stores across America for obscure recordings, and developed a jazz appreciation society for the people of North Dakota.

Robert Lundberg made personal recordings of each radio show and these recordings are the only archive remaining of his decade-long passion for his music.  They are presented in this podcast exactly as he recorded them almost 40 years ago.
