Great talking to you today! Still trying to remember my darn ning password???!!! Argh!!! I'm in here--- trying to navigate elsewhere.
Here's to all of the wonderful jazzy people!!
Letitia, I will not be in NYC for most of August (returning on the 23rd). I hope to catch the last few days of Harlem Week.
What event will you be having in September?
I am producing a Jazz and Poetry event in NYC on July 16. It will be my first such event, so I'm having a severe bout of butterflies in my stomach!
I visited the site http://www.thetwinkieawards.com and found the info there quite fascinating. Now I want to know how to get me a "twinkie".
Hello my friend...we've got to reconnect...been a lot going on! How are things on your end? I know that you're shakin' and movin' things out there...I'm certain of it!

The word in getting around, around the word that is. I hope you are passing on this information to all your friends. We got an interview on a site, all the way from Europe, that is most impressive. Hit the link http://www.smoothjazztherapy.com/

Hey Letitia,
Let's make that happen--- can you add songs to Facebook?
I'm still making my way around on all of these sites (smile).
Let me know what I have to do. Do you mind downloading it from amazon or itunes? If not, let me know. Thank you sooo much! I get great response especially from folks who can 'relate' to those situations ;-).
U made my day girl.

Hello, my networking wizard! Thanks fotr the kind comments...I'm looking forward to connecting with you again. Hopefully, we'll have a chance to sit down and share some thoughts over a cool drink or hot cup of coffee.
The Jazz Network is exactly what the title suggests, a place where you get to mix and mingle with those who have not only an appreciation for Jazz but a forum to hear new up and coming artists as well. I've hooked up with so many of my old friends that I've lost contact with over the years here and it's been a great place to meet folk, appreciate good music and Musicianship. What an incredible idea!!

Grady Tate began his jazz career as a much-celebrated drummer, backing such icons as Wes Montgomery, Ella Fitzgerald, and Quincy Jones. Tate has since traded in his skins for a microphone at center stage, where he delivers smooth and soulful baritone vocals. With pianist John di Martino, Tate sings "Everybody Loves My Baby" and "Where Do You Start."
He was a soulful reedman, an amazing talent scout for decades and a bandleader of one of the country's most popular acts. Born in 1913, Herman led "Thundering Herds" that were both big draws and well-respected by the likes of Igor Stravinsky. Here are five recordings which still sound fresh today.
Hear passionate improvisation across borders on Colombian harp, Argentinian bandoneón, Venezuelan cuatro and vibes from the U.S. In a set with Castañeda, his trio and special guests perform at the Americas Society in New York.
Ever since he started becoming one of the best alto saxophone players in the world, Zenón has drawn from his upbringing in Puerto Rico. But, like many Puerto Ricans, Zenón lives in New York — where his quartet of 10 years has finally been invited to play the Vanguard. It presents new music in concert.
