Dragged through the brink of extinction to a new introduction

A red headed 'ginga sista’ given soul by the boss with a big heart

Handed four familiar strings and shown how to walk an old path in a new way

One forged by the greatest greats to ever grace the earth

Mingus, Spaulding, Mitchell

A pilot light was sparked with passion.

You’ve brought life to my heart and a fascination undying for the art known as jazz

DoB: for that I am endlessly greatful.
