My Jazz Story

I love jazz because...it is the music of the soul. I was first exposed to jazz...as a child listening to my grandfather's big band records. I met Al Jarreau...in Milwaukee. The best show I ever attended was...Patti Austin at the Cubby Bear in Chicago. The first jazz record I bought was...Manhattan Transfer. My advice to new listeners...go to a quite room, lay back, close your eyes. Or whatever else you have in mind.
