My mother was a singer. She instilled in me a sense of swing and timing. Everywhere I went there was that sound, that happy sound of life on fire. Our next door neighbors were jazz musicians. Traveling in a hearse to jobs with the bass strapped on top and a set of vibes in the back. It was the early 60's. I would watch and listen and they would have be singing “Days of Wine and Roses” at age 7 with them. It was fun. It felt good. It felt right. Pop music called to me growing up. I found myself drawn to the more technical types of sounds, ones influenced by the higher levels of jazz, songs of feeling, songs of spirit, songs of the best of humanity. Throughout many radio adventures I ended up landing with jazz. I don't think it was an accident. I don't believe in jazz as a museum piece. I believe it is a living, breathing, ever evolving art form of people reaching out in the darkness, searching for the exact chords for the exact nature of human existence.
