R.I.P. Beloved Teena Marie

Teena Marie has passed and am coming out of shock about the news now.

As you all know, she is one of my favorites.  Words cannot describe the sadness I feel right now.  I am reposting Video we took at concert at L.A. County Fair this summer.  She was only 54!!!  Live each moment to the fullest, Family.

Happy Birthday, Clark Terry - 90 years old today!

Happy Birthday, Clark Terry,

Just when you think I review current, independent worldwide house music, today’s Jewel is fellow Saint Louis native, Clark Terry.  Happy birthday, Mr. Terry, who was born December 14 in St. Louis, Missouri--90 years ago!  I wonder how old he was when he did this with Count Basie’s band?  What a treat to be able to watch Count Basie at my desk before beginning my transcribing for the day.  What a great song and presence!  I am so excited to be able to share this with you.  There are so many positives about these-here modern times that magic unfolds with the click of a mouse.  We salute you, Clark Terry, a Living Legend!
