I heard someone call out on a record; Fat girl! Fat girl! and I realized they were speaking of Theodore Navarro. Not even a fat girl would want to be called "Fat Girl"; much less a man who was overweight with a high squeaky voice.He tolerated it,...

Rok, I want to thank you for Randy Weston. While I had heard the name, until now, I didn't have him in my collection. That's because I was living in the "stone age" before PC's and "you tube".In terms of "creativity", I put him up there with Min...

Why couldn't "she partners" be satisfied in just being girl friends?The title to that album cover should be "Sonny Rollins, the fastest tenor in the "midwest" will blow you away"

"Satirical" would be one word, I can't think of another. That was before "Trane"; he was "El Numero Uno" on the tenor.            https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9ST_MvaONLkThat tune is in a laid back groove, the kind you were in when just watchi...

Frogman, nothing can compare to seeing, and hearing a great musician in a relatively small space perform.I've had that experience exactly three times, and each one of them has stayed with me until this day.Sometime it seems that the audience can s...
