My Jazz Story
I love jazz because of its creativity, expression and interaction, and of course the sound!
I was first exposed to jazz musicals and my parents' singing.
I met Pat Metheny!
The best shows I ever attended were: Pat Metheny Group, Wayne Shorter, and Yellowjackets.
The first jazz record I bought was Joe Pass "Chops."
My advice to new listeners... jazz music is one of the most fun genres, keep digging until you find your absolute favorites!
