.... ..Buy now with paypal or credit card only $18.00, includes tax and shipping. The CD "Intrinsic Evolution"!!!!!................ .. .. .. .. .... Supersound is Charli's big band, his pet project! The emergence of Supersound as a major musical experience is underscored by its latest recording "Intrinsic Evolution"... Charli Persip has been the uncrowned king of modern big band drumming for over half a century. He is among the very few who created the approach for driving post-swing large ensembles, and he continues to set the pace with Supersound. Through its diversity of moods and its focus on young writers and players, Supersound also finds Persip taking the lead in mentoring the stars of the future, much as he was mentored by Dizzy Gillespie. This is a band that covers a lot of musical territory, all well. - Bob Blumenthal.. "Intrinsic Evolution" is the fourth album recorded by this truly suburb band. The first was recorded on the Stash label and entitled Charli Persip and Superband; the second is Superband 11, recorded on Soul Note. Tracks from these recordings are currently being played on jazz stations throughout the world, especially in the Greater New York area, which is home base for the band. .. The musical direction of Supersound ( formally known as Superband) presents the total spectrum of African American music, commonly referred to as jazz; from Bebop era to the present and beyond. Fans of all ages have thoroughly enjoyed listening to and yes! Even dancing to the music of Supersound... Supersound's library consists of unique arrangements on both standards and original compositions by some of todays most outstanding writers. The individual sound of the band stems from its concept: First, an excellent rhythm section with a small band feeling ( not the tight woodchopping sound that is heard in most big bands of today). Next, all the horns know the melody and harmonic structure of each tune, as well as their written parts. Thus, the band portrays the true drama in the music while maintaining the basic jazz big band traditions. Finally, Supersound's concept crosses the threshold of musical transformation with Charli Persip's drumming, unique in itself. All these attributes make Supersound a TRUE jazz orchestra. -

TODAY'S THOUGHT IS ABOUT RODNEY DANGERFIELD ...
"I get no respect. The way my luck is running, if I was a politician I would be honest."
"I have good looking kids. Thank goodness my wife cheats on me."
"I looked up my family tree and found out I was the sap."
"I told my wife the truth. I told her I was seeing a psychiatrist. Then she told me the truth: that she was seeing a psychiatrist, two plumbers, and a bartender."
"My wife wants sex in the back of the car and she wants me to drive."
"What a kid I got, I told him about the birds and the bees and he told me about the butcher and my wife."
"This morning when I put on my underwear I could hear the fruit-of-the-loom guys laughing at me."
~ Rodney Dangerfield

Sending LOTS OF LOVE your way Charli!
TODAY'S THOUGHT IS ABOUT THE MOTOWN SOUND ...
In 1959, Berry Gordy gathered the best musicians from Detroit's thriving jazz and blues scene to begin cutting songs for his new record company. Starting with an $800 loan, Gordy turned MOTOWN RECORDS and Detroit, Michigan into "HITSVILLE U.S.A."
Between 1959 and 1972, this unheralded group of musicians had played on MORE # 1 HITS than the
> BEACH BOYS,
> the ROLLING STONES,
> ELVIS
> and the BEATLES ... COMBINED ~
which makes them the GREATEST HIT MACHINE in the history of popular music.
These great musicians called themselves simply
the FUNK BROTHERS.
I WAS BORN AND RAISED IN THE SHADOWS OF MOTOWN
AND OWE MUCH TO THEIR RICH MUSICAL LEGACY.

Merry Christmas Charli!
TODAY'S THOUGHT IS FROM "IT'S A WONDERFUL LIFE" ...
Potter, the banker, has given a speech to the Board of the Building and Loan, referring to the working people of Bedford Falls as a "DISCONTENTED LAZY RABBLE."
George Bailey responds, defending his late father, Peter Bailey, and the working people whom he championed.
"... he did help a few people get out of your slums, Mr. Potter. And what's wrong with that? ... You...you said...What'd you say just a minute ago?...They had to wait and save their money before they even ought to think of a decent home. Wait! Wait for what? Until their children grow up and leave them? Until they're so old and broken-down that they...Do you know how long it takes a working man to save five thousand dollars?
Just remember this, Mr. Potter, that THIS RABBLE YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT ... THEY DO MOST OF THE WORKING AND PAYING AND LIVING AND DYING IN THIS COMMUNITY. Well, is it too much to have them work and pay and live and die in a couple of decent rooms and a bath? Anyway, my father didn't think so. PEOPLE WERE HUMAN BEINGS TO HIM, BUT TO YOU, A WARPED FRUSTRATED OLD MAN, THEY'RE CATTLE. Well, in my book HE DIED A MUCH RICHER MAN THAN YOU'LL EVER BE!"
ALWAYS REMEMBER, NO MAN IS A FAILURE WHO HAS FRIENDS!

MySpace Clearance: Florida's source for the most live jazz & blues info is leaving MySpace
Hello MySpace Friend!
Jazz & Blues Florida is bailing out of MySpace and focusing on our own websites and our Facebook network and we invite you to come join us at either or both. We don't have a Facebook business page yet, as it seems it is better to fully develop a personal page first, then migrate to business page, so come over to www.Facebook.com/JazzBluesFlorida and send in a friend request. I can't explain it, but the page comes up under my name, Charlie Boyer, but it is really us. AND, if you really want to connect to Florida's jazz & blues scene come check out our main site at www.JazzBluesFlorida.com and if you like what you see, shoot me an email and let me know you want to sign up for our email list. You can opt for daily, weekly or monthly contact and change your mind at any time. I am sure you understand the value of these connections and that nowadays providing that connection is your contribution to what keeps us going, like the money you used to spend on newspapers. This is a one-time request and we hope you understand the seriousness of it, as we will be deleting your MySpace connection after we send this to you so we can keep track of making sure everyone received notice. See you on the other side, where the good music is happening! Please excuse us if you are already over there, we had to do this as auto as possible due to the high number of friends we have to process.
