關於我: Hey all, if you couldn't tell already, I am a musician of many years. I have spent my life playing drums/percussion. I started out playing in local groups in Pontiac. I then played in the army show Operation Happiness until I got discharged. I then made my way to New York City where I really hit it off. I am madly in love with my wife Keiko who somehow manages to keep me in line. Some things that I enjoy are traveling, art, and gigging with my favorite cats. I have met a lot of people in my day so don't be afraid to shoot me an e-mail.

Man oh man, I have been listening to "Naima" since it first came out when the bass was only playing the pedal on the AFlat and EFlat as written in the Real Book, and it has always blown me away, but this version is the best one I have heard since the one on the album "Coltrane Live at the Village Vanguard Again" album in 1966.
I was really hoping that the Trane would include 'Naima On the "Live In Japan' box set of 4 cd's that really stretch the songs out to an hour or so, but we are humbled to and for what those guys did for our musical appreciation every time they did it.
