My Grandmother.....her inspiring music!
Another blog on my grandmother on my daddy's side.....The tiny woman told me so many stories about how she played the old-style music on the ancient organ in her little church out in the country. I could just hear the vibrant organ music sounds coming from this so talented woman who played by ear because she could not read music. I know the reason I grew to love jazz and big blues music was because of this lovely little woman and her huge musical influence on me. It makes a person feel so good when a person of your blood really loves you....the really young boy. That's what this dear woman of my clan was to me. A lady who taught me how to have loads and loads of passion. That's why I care so much about life and art and music now. Let us all now praise the wonderful women of our lives.

Nice Writing
THE GOOD terse writing of Ernest Hemingway is a real joy. He does not use too many adjectives. His 'Torrents' is a fine tome.

COOLING OFF WITH WEST COAST JAZZ is loads of fun. The temp is wildly hot now and so I listened to Art Pepper jazz, grand West Coast stuff....
