My Jazz Story
I love jazz because...its a direct window into the soul
I was first exposed to jazz...as a teen. I was an usher at the Hollywood Bowl and saw Ella
Fitzgerald's last concert.
I met Rosemary Clooney when she performed with the Honolulu Symphony while I was
playing the violin section.
The best show I ever attended was...Bela Fleck and the Flecktones christmas show in
Honolulu...the 12 days of christmas in 12 different keys and 12 different time
signatures...WOW
The first jazz record I bought was...vintage stephane grapelli
My advice to new listeners...what legendary bassist John Clayton told me...listen to what
inspires you...
