The Numbers Band has been making music since 1970. They first took the stage in Kent, Ohio, at the Kove. They became a hit in Northeast Ohio with their blend of blues and jazz, and a slew of critically acclaimed albums. But their unique sound was also hard to define and difficult to market. Through it all, though, the band has continued to make music - their new CD is 15-60-75.

Superman will soon celebrate 75 years as a comic book hero. To commemorate the creation of the Man of Steel by Clevelanders Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster a new exhibit was recently unveiled at Cleveland Hopkins International Airport. Leading that effort was the Siegel and Shuster Society. Organization President Mike Olszewski provides the details and information about a new Superman movie.

And we kick off a new feature, called Applause America. It's a segment in which we bring you performances and interviews with artists from across the country who have intriguing stories to tell. In our first short film award-winning Minnesota poet, Ed Bok Lee, shares his thoughts on the very human nature of his hero, legendary martial artist, Bruce Lee.The Numbers Band
