My Jazz Story

I love jazz because... it can be anything. Smooth, aggressive, melancholic, joyous... anything and everything! I was first exposed to jazz... by my big brother (thank you Martin!) I met Christian Scott... on a street in Montreal before a show. The best show I ever attended was... Joshua Redman with the Bad Plus and Brian Blade's Fellowship Band The first jazz record I bought was... not very original but oh so meaningful! Kind of Blue My advice to new listeners... take your time, don't force anything, this music will reveal itself to you in due time (and it will!) Or whatever else you have in mind : Keep grooving kind people and spread love, not hate : Peace Please!
