In honor of International Jazz Day(s), a couple of days ago I was digging some Henry “Red” Allen, then on to some Duke in honor of his Birthday. Yesterday, I hope New Orleans Dave will appreciate, I was listening to the Meters & Buckwheat Zydeco. Then last night I faded out with some Miles & Trane. All good for the soul.
Last night I had to pick up my Mandolin & play Stella by Starlight because “the Uninvited” was on Turner.
Peace, Love, & Jazz,

dug the 10th anniversary of International Jazz Day special on PBS last night...really great! Many great styles and stylists presented, as well as statements from the artists concerning the value of jazz and improvisation as a unifying force, a language of love and spirit, aspiration, ambassadorship, and peace..
Dig it! PBS usually usually replays things a few times, or maybe it can be found "On Demand" or through your local PBS outlet website
