Jazz'SAlive is making it's annual appearance in Travis Park on Sept 20 and 21 and I can hardly wait.  Two days of solid jazz and good food.  Hit the link to see all the acts and headliners include: Eddie Palmieri and the Yellowjackets but I'm coming out to see Nicholas Payton  Hopefully the weather will cooperate and a good time will be had by all.

Robert Glasper Experiment - Gonna Be Alright (F.T.B.) [feat. Ledisi]



I chose this song today because they are coming to Houston.  Look for ticket announcements soon.

Have a great President's Day weekend.

Happy Friday - Happy birthday Dave Brubeck

Another weekend is upon us and I can't wait.  My twitter feed brought to my attention that it's Dave Brubeck's birthday.  I confirmed it on davebrubeck.com.  I almost feel bad posting this youtube of Take Five because he has so many standout tunes.

Have a great weekend.

If you ever needed a reason to go on another cruise Royal just gave me one.  This made cruise budgeting that much simpler.  They also changed their policy to so that you can buy it per person and not per stateroom.  That way the designated walker doesn't have to pay for the person that staggers back to the cabin.  Let the partying begin.

This is the most thought out creative video I have seen in years.  Now I have to buy the album.
