Boots Don’t Make You Bootsy
impenetrable vinyl so the chemicals aren't liable
to leak into you or ruin your processed do.
Change up the groove from double time, blood,
"Breakwater" appears to be ready for a flood.
At first I wondered why you were in a shower room,
now I get the point that your gear is waterproof,
Tell me do you merely clean up crime scenes,
or slosh through sewers, drains,… Continue

Which Candidate for President Will Do More For Jazz?
I heard that Ann Marie Wilkins is working for the Obama campaign. Since she manages Harry Connick and Branford and runs Marsalis Music, does this mean Obama is good for jazz?
Please send me your comments!
I'm curious if anyone knows!

OL'SCHOOL/NEW SCHOOL; CHANGIN' TIMES
For those of you familiar with by work with Brass Construction, BT Express and Skyy, Raphael Cameron, et. al, I know this album is quite a departure from my usual funk/soul/R&B dance fare. However, I believe as an artist, writer and producer, one has to constantly allow for… Continue

Melancholy
She is the densest darkness of the woods;
impenetrable until daylight, and even then,
pit-falled and precarious.
You think you can avoid her if you wait until morning,
but she’s a vapor that creeps though the cracks of any room
like Radon - undetectable by canary or aqueduct trout.
I glance up from my book and she’s appeared.
Her head tilted like a Jikata listening
for the strains of a song.
Teeth slightly… Continue

I listened to a schmorgasborg of really good jazz , then , I get up and go get my laundy , come back in the room and there it was......My Favorite Things (John Coltrane) is playing. Now this is one of my fist jazz cd's and i remember the feeling when i purchased it at a used cd store like it was yesterday. I have to tell you i fell in love with this record all over again.

Why Arrangers make lousy copyists...and vice versa....
Hmmm...this is a topic I've talked about almost my entire career as a music copyist/arranger...which is almost always goes unchecked...This is a simple thing to do...copying music from music scores...it's not that hard???...or is it???...it's not as easy as some think...it takes a really good copyist to find out what the hell the arrangers point of view is and make the song (written wise...i mean) the way the arranger wrote it...and also to be as flawless as…

INSPIRATION / EPIPHANY
Inspiration is so hard to come by, and so easy to lose; but when it DOES come, it comes from such unexpected places!
So not long after my last post, I found myself again complaining to a friend of mine about the piece I was working on, and how frustrated I was with my inability to play it. The frustration would quicly cause me to put my instrument down and walk away for a day or two. And it ended like this:

Waiting For Fagen
listening and waiting for Fagen.
I stare at his latest portrait;
his graying stubble and well worn lines,
the wicked double waves of his protruding lips.
I study the backgrounds of his photographs;
try to make out the titles of the books on his shelves,
the tiny models of buildings, the ornate clock on his desk.
I pore over the precise way he holds his… Continue

Jaijai, what a wonderful mission you've undertaken to create such a place for artistic minds to meet and share their hearts. A place to renew faded determinations, and revive lessened momentums. A place to display our wares and reconfirm to one another that we actually are on the right track.
I commend you, Jaijai, for caring so much that you created this castle of the heart for all of us. I want to share my praise for all of the new friends as well as old friends that I've met and will meet here in our castle. Here we can garnish the where-with-all, the strength, the conviction, and the selflessness through our symbiosis, to share our gift to the world with an unbiased agenda.
My mentor, Daisaku Ikeda says of art: "A beautiful flower delights and refreshes the hearts of all people equally, no matter what soil it grows in. That is the power of beauty. The same is true of great art. It is this spirit that the German poet Heinrich Heine sang of when he wrote that once the peapod bursts open, the sugar peas inside are for everyone to enjoy."
Let's be audacious, my friends!
