About Me

My Jazz Story

I love jazz because...it is in my DNA I was first exposed to jazz... before I was born. I met [musician name]...Cab Calloway The best show I ever attended was...The Sun Ra Orchestra at the African Street Festival in the '70's The first jazz record I bought was...didn't have to...we had tons of albums growing up. My advice to new listeners...live music is always better than the recordings. Support live music! Or whatever else you have in mind. Thank you AAJ for helping to keep the music alive and flowing!

My House Concert Story

It is so wonderful that the house concert concept has become more popular. It used to be a big part of our culture years ago. Plus, it's way more fun to experience performances in an intimate setting.
