    My musical tastes lie in straight ahead jazz, contemporary jazz, R&B (mainly old skool). hip-hop (old skool), downtempo, deep house, electronica, dub, ska, breakbeat, nu jazz, trip-hop, brokenbeat,old soul, neo-soul,ambient, classical, new world, electro, two-step, garage house, techno, turntablism, reggae, rock, and gotta have gospel. The music I enjoy the most (outside of jazz) is often termed eclectic by most who know me.

    I host a weekly (bi-weekly at the moment) podcast entitled The Sunday Soundtrack. The Sunday Soundtrack podcast is geared towards giving you an alternative listening experience to the standard Sunday afternoon commercial smooth jazz formatted programs and expose you to independent artists with tunes that provide that same smoothness, but in such genres as electronica, nu jazz, downtempo, experimental and the like. Please feel free to take a listen and leave comments, if u like: It can be found here

    I've had the great opportunity record tracks on CD releases of two of the most talented artists I have personally come across. It was a sheer pleasure from start to finish and I'm happy I got the chance to share the gift He gave me in this way:

    I, like just about everybody else in this world was extremely hurt when my daughter called me at work today, to tell me of Michael's death and I, like most others refused to believe it.  But sadly and within time, I had to admit that it was indeed true . . . "Beautiful Michael Jackson had passed away."

    I can remember the very first time we saw The Jackson Five and at that time, it was the most AMAZING thing we'd ever witnessed!  I shared a bedroom with my older sister wherein we had twin beds and within that room, there was not ONE white space on all four of those walls that didn't have either The Jackson Five or Michael's picture on it! 

    I also remember writing to him, expressing my young love AND yes, sending him a 3x5 school photo!  Talk about LOVE . . . I was so there!

    I Love you Michael . . . STILL!

    A friend sent me these pictures and they really touched my heart.  Because in addition to the pictures that you see below, we all know that there is so much love in the world, but on the other hand, there's so much hurt also.

    So I find myself saying out loud more and more . . . "Come Lord Jesus, Come!" (Revelation 22)
