My Jazz Story

I love jazz because...It makes me feel good. I was first exposed to jazz...When I was a baby. I met [musician name]...Wes Montgomery, Dave Brubeck, Ron Carter, Herbie Hancock; too many more to mention. The best show I ever attended was...Can't say. I've been to so many great shows. The first jazz record I bought was...Not sure-probably one of the Miles Prestige LPs. My advice to new listeners...Listen with an open mind with no outside interference. Take it all in. Or whatever else you have in mind.

My House Concert Story

I've attended house concerts as a listener and as a Jazz guitarist playing for the audience. House concerts are a great place to listen or play. There is a much more direct connection between the audience and the musicians.
