Jazz Concert

We had the pleasure of listening to a Jazz master on Friday in concert. Slide Hampton, a world class trombone player, composer, arranger ... jazz musician par excellence. It was an amazing evening. A wonderful experience to listen to some live jazz. He played along with some wonderful Jazz ensembles. A talented lot of musicians from OSU. The concert was held at the Seretean Concert Hall. It was packed. Didnot know that Stillwater had such a large jazz following.
Two hrs of fabulous jazz. Got to listen to some standards like Walkin', When the Lights are Low, Cherokee, Blue'n' Boogie, Stardust and Lover come back to me.
What a way to spend the Friday nite. After the concert there was a small reception. German chocolate cake and fruit punch. Oooh lala.
If you like to listen to jazz all day/night all you need to do is log on to www.kcck.org
An amazing team of people work hard to bring some world class jazz and blues. Yes, this is the same station that I had the pleasure of being associated with in Iowa. They are the only full time jazz station in the mid west. Three Cheers to the folks at KCCK. I miss them all.
