    NEW MUSIC AVAILABLE

    Trumpeter Kenny Wellington has played for a range of artists in soul, funk and popular music. Kenny was also a founder member of the groups Beggar & Co and Light of the World, bands that enjoyed chart success in both genre and National charts.The EP was recorded between sessions when Kenny was working on the new Beggar & Co album 'Sleeping Giants' which has just been well received in both the USA and UK. On this EP new interpretations are offered of some well known jazz masterpieces, 'Red Clay', 'Maiden Voyage' and 'A Night In Tunisia' which show the trumpeters dexterity and solid technique. The title track is very 'It's Like That' is very much in the vein of the modern players such as Nicolas Payton and Christian Scott.

    Happy Easter Kenny!
     

    TODAY'S THOUGHT IS ABOUT EASTER ...

    "For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish, but have eternal life. For God did not send the Son into the world to judge the world, but that the world should be saved through Him."

    ~ John 3:16-17

    And he said to them, "Do not be amazed; you are looking for Jesus the Nazarene, who has been crucified. He has risen; He is not here; behold, here is the place where they laid Him."

    ~ Mark 16:6

    With LOVE, RESPECT, and PEACE my friend,

    Be CHARITABLE Kenny!

     

    (Richard is a patient with Primary Systemic Amyloidosis)

    TODAY'S THOUGHT IS ABOUT CHARITY ...

    "The best thing to give to your ENEMY is FORGIVENESS;

    to an OPPONENT, TOLERANCE; to a FRIEND, your HEART;

    to your CHILD, a GOOD EXAMPLE; to a FATHER,

    DEFERENCE; to your MOTHER, conduct that will MAKE HER

    PROUD of you; to YOURSELF, RESPECT; to ALL MEN,

    CHARITY."
      
    ~ Francis Maitland Balfour

    CHARITY SEES THE NEED NOT THE CAUSE!  NO ACT OF

    KINDNESS, HOWEVER SMALL, IS EVER FORGOTTEN!

    With LOVE, RESPECT, and PEACE my friend,

    Believe in the POWER OF YOUR DREAMS Kenny!

     

    TODAY'S THOUGHT IS ABOUT THE POWER OF DREAMS ...

    "Every GREAT DREAM begins with a DREAMER.

    Always remember, you have within you the STRENGTH,

    the PATIENCE, and the PASSION to REACH FOR THE

    STARS to CHANGE THE WORLD."

    ~ Harriet Tubman

    GO CONFIDENTLY IN THE DIRECTION OF YOUR DREAMS.

    TODAY'S THOUGHT IS ABOUT OPPORTUNITY ...

    "Out of CLUTTER, find SIMPLICITY.

    From DISCHORD, find HARMONY.

    In the middle of DIFFICULTY lies OPPORTUNITY."

    ~ Albert Einstein

    EVEN WHEN OPPORTUNITY KNOCKS ~ YOU STILL HAVE

    TO GET UP OFF YOUR BUTT AND OPEN THE DOOR!
