About Me

Die hard jazz aficionado.

I'm not a number, or a color, or anything else you may try to use to describe me or categorize me. My spirit is indomitable. This best describes me and this best describes what I look for in the music I enjoy.

My Jazz Story

I love jazz because...there's no other music I've found that stirs my emotions as jazz does. I was first exposed to jazz...in a music appreciation class. I met Ira Sullivan...what a gas! He took all the time in the world for me and made me feel as if I was the most important person in the room. The best show I ever attended was...top 3: Les DeMerle, Village Vanguard Jazz Orchestra, Charlie Harrington. The first jazz record I bought was...Ascenseur Pour L'Échafaud - Mile Davis My advice to new listeners...explore, branch out, and always return to the roots if you are lost.
