About Me

My Jazz Story

I love jazz because... it is the most creative and intuitive form of art. I was first exposed to jazz... when I was 12 and listened to a CD, full of diverse big band compositions. I met Phil Wilson ... one of the few white men who's mentally completely black. A timeless role model and source of inspiration for every musician, equal of origin and tradition. The best show I ever attended was... the Danny Grisette Trio, at Tunnel Vienna, August 2012. My advice to new listeners... Ella Fitzgerald & Duke Ellington, live at Cote d'Azur!!!
