Bio
John Farrell Logan got his nickname by playing Little Walter's harmonica-instrumental gem, "Juke," incessantly. Rockin', multi-media-style, in the music world for over 3 decades, Juke's worked with countless major recording artists and musical trendsetters, such as Ry Cooder, Albert Collins, Leon Russell, & Los Lobos. And then there's radio. Juke was one of the most respected and popular blues jocks on Southern California radio (teamed with co-host Ellen Bloom, for National Public Radio affiliate KPCC, LA's "Friday Nite Blues Revue"). Sadly, the station's format changed in early 2000, as is so often the case in Los Angeles, so the Friday Nite Blues Revue will have to remain in people's hearts and heads. Yeah, his harp blows on a ton of commercials. Keep your ears peeled for his work with Ry Cooder. Dig both for the soundtrack of 1984's "Streets of Fire" film, and for the blues-based feature, "Crossroads." Logan played off-camera harmonica for the star and worked behind the scenes as coach, composer, and consultant. You want more? OK, how about "La Bamba" to "Midnight Run" to "Heathers." And if you have a TV, Juke's harp was prominent on the theme and score of the original "Roseanne" show for 9 seasons. He plays bass harmonica on the "Home Improvement" theme. You'll find Juke's music tucked into more than a few soundtracks, too. "I've always thought of myself, musically, as being in the people-movin' business. That's what we're trying to do with Mocombo's music - melodically, lyrically, emotionally, spiritually and rhythmically. Also central to this music are the rhythms of the City of Los Angeles, my hometown... multi-textural and multi-cultural rhythms... all the time bustin' through and messin' with ya..." ..........Pimp out your webpage with ..PimpWebPage.... -

MySpace Clearance: Florida's online guide to live jazz & blues info is leaving MySpace.
Hello MySpace Friend!
Jazz & Blues Florida is bailing out of MySpace and focusing on our own websites now. We thought Facebook was the way to go, but now it looks like that is disintegrating, too.
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.
If you are musician based or touring here, our listings are free - we just need to know about them. Use the email address below to send us the info.
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. We will be deleting your MySpace connection after we send this out so you will not be hearing from us again here.
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.
