Jazz at the Station, a monthly program designed to give local jazz fans and performers an opportunity to meet and enjoy jazz, presents Joe McQueen on the saxophone and friends: percussionist Don Keipp; ,Clayton Furch on keyboards and more. Guets are invited to come early and enjoy refreshments or a tour of Gallery at the Station. McQueen was born in 1919 and has been playing jazz since he was sixteen. He will be celebrating his 90th birthday at the end of May. McQueen has been an important part of local jazz since 1945, when he arrived in Ogden with a band that dissolved when its leader gambled away the troupe's earnings en route from Las Vegas. McQueen reorganized the band and stayed in Ogden. He has played with jazz luminaries such as Charlie Parker, Chet Baker, Lester Young, Count Basie, Duke Ellington and Dizzy Gillespie, to name a few.
