   About The New Jazz Ministry
MySpace Layouts
MySpace Layouts Myspace Codes MySpace Layouts The New Jazz Ministry formed 6 years ago in Lancaster, California with the addition of B.E. Nelson to the "Smooth Stones". By incorporatiing this gifted bassist into the group, came the funky urban sounds of Harlem and the robust Jazz/Rock flavor of the east coast. Melding the advanced improv skills of San Fancisco's legendary "freeform" Sax God, (Snakepit) Eddie Edwards, the two set out to create music that is expressive, mind expanding, captivating, and bumpin. Like Magellan meet Bartok, these two musical explorers laid out melodiously sonic soundscapes that capture the spontaneity and originality of Ornette Coleman, the spirituality of John Coletrane, with the elastic grooves of P-Funk. Check out their music from the fringes to the core, and hear how the "New Jazz Ministry" lay down their "Sermon of Sounds" to the masses.

Ya know, more so after the Bangers than any other musical experience, I hear so many tunes where I think, "Yeah, I used to play that - and I hope never to play it again."

Fun times! Thanks for the wishes. Give the fam a hug for me.

“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.”

----from A Return to Love, by Marianne Williamson.

Looking forward to hearing from you and doing some great music.

The Nightingale would like to

Master Barry,

Wishing you well, and missing the experience of those solid, salient, and soulfully slick baselines. I've never flown so high as when grounded by the groove of your supporting bass.

I'm still working on . . .
"No One Ever Tells You"
(B.B. King & Diana Schurr: Heart to Heart [1994])
What a fun song!

Cheers! and warmest regards,

J.
