Fulani M. Haynes

I had the privilege of being entertained by vocalist Fulani Haynes and her band of musicians at the Haley House Bakery Café in Roxbury, MA. This DUDLEY SQUARE DIVA performed many of my favorite Jazz tunes, Sambas, Swing and lovely ballads. Her group consisted of Max Whiting, Bass; Mike Shea, Keyboards, Bobby Ward, Drums and Cyril Chapman Sax. Guest musicians were: Lance Houston Flugle horn and Rumas Barrett Congas The all newly prepared food at the First Thursday of the month, stsrted the New Year off, nicely. The food was fantastic. In addition to the excellent food served to please the most exquisite palette our ears were fed a great selection of old and occasionally modern tunes of the Jazz legions. I danced to Afro Blue. This intimate setting was a winner. I'll be back in February. Thanks to The Jazz Collaborative. M.Kam.
