"THERE IS NO GREATER LOVE" Oscar Peterson challenges bassist Ray Brown and Neils Henning Orsted Peterson...a must see, this tune is 'cookin'!!! I sadly share the news that Oscar Peterson passed on 12/23/07. He will be sorely missed in the world of jazz for he was the "master" that taught all of us the true essence of what jazz is..." R.I.P. Oscar.....

Jaijai Jackson grew up in the music business....
Daughter of the late “Chubby Jackson” famed jazz legend bassist, inventor of the five string bass, TV kiddie-show host, writer, composer and is darn proud to be!
At the age of six, she danced and performed on her Dad’s television show, felt the pulse of the business and was determined to express her mark as a “Jackson”....
After the many plays and chorus’s she explored through high-school, she then moved to California for the “bright lights”, Jaijai chose to learn the business from the “business end” and soon found herself, running a recording studio, doing voice-overs, booking acts, represented 27 jazz musicians at one time). She then chose to work for the biggest “big band agency” in New York City, as “right arm” to Willard Alexander, of the Willard Alexander Agency. (Learned from the best)...
In the interim working at the agency and coordinating tours for Count Basie, Buddy Rich, Tommy Dorsey Orchestra, Harry James, Maynard Ferguson, and many other bands and individual artists, she learned the game.
Buddy Rich came into her office one day to go-over contracts, he said to her “you should really meet my daughter, I really think you guys would get along real well”. She went over to meet Cathy on an evening that Buddy was on the “Tonight Show”; they shared the experience of being two “jazz daughters” and could relate to that level of their worlds. They expanded their thoughts together and started living and singing together. Buddy then asked them if they wanted to go sing in Europe with his band and there they went, off to Europe. Jaijai left Willard’s office and went off to pursue performance once again...first engagement was at Madison Square Garden and prestigous venues all throughout England (ie. Royal Festival Hall), Scotland and Wales with the Buddy Rich Band!
Her sincerest efforts became an integral part of the benefit performance as Associate Producer of “A Celebration of Music” for the late Buddy Rich at Carnegie Hall, in association with Executive Producer Cathy Rich and the JVC Jazz Festival.
Soon after, back in California she collaborated with her father in compiling a catalogue of all original music videos of the 30’s and 40’s distributed by a Disney-owned television/film distribution company International Creative Exchange which was lead by Olivier de Courson who was responsible for launching the Disney Channel, this experience afforded Jaijai the opportunity to learn domestic and international TV/Film distribution/Co-productions, coordination and foreign licensing of product and interaction with TV and Film producers.
Moving forward in her career, Jaijai assisted the Sr. VP of Bookings and manager of Stevie Ray Vaughan, Alex Hodges for the special events being presented at the Pantages Theatre, Greek Theatre and the Pacific Amphitheater for the Nederlander Organization in, Hollywood, CA.
NAMM National Association of Music Merchants)in Carlsbad, CA commissioned Jaijai to produce the opening of the “Making of Music Museum” where more than 2500 people attended and also where her father’s two basses have resided for the past few years.
Jaijai has collaborated with major corporations through various production companies from conceptual ideas to full on production of events and entertainment direction.
In dedication to her father’s great memory she has launched Five String Productions, which is, a full service event production company dedicated to jazz performance and music mentorship
Jaijai is proud to have presented a jazz radio show built on launching new artists, providing interviews with seasoned veteran musician’s who mentor the new up-and-coming jazz musicians that are worthy of worldwide recognition through her "jazzfomercials".

Jesus Christ our Lord, o what a day You have made, we give thanks to You, in that we can be in Your presence, one more time, we praise You, for Your sacrifice for us, while we were yet in sin, You justified us and redeemed us from the death of hell were there is weeping and gnashing of teeth for eternity, You are our Salvation, being obedient to the Father, who sent You, the vail was torn which allowed us access to Father ,in which we were made for His pleasure, not our own, so in our tribulations, we can rejoice and be exceeding glad, because they help build our patience, conduct, maturity, holiness, hope which help us live in a pleasing way, in the sight of our Father, conforming our hearts desires to righteousness, through the Word of God, with the help of the Holy Spirit(Romans 5:1Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ: 2By whom also we have access by faith into this grace wherein we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God. 3And not only so, but we glory in tribulations also: knowing that tribulation worketh patience; 4And patience, experience, hope: 5And hope maketh not ashamed; because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us. 6For when we were yet without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly. 7For scarcely for a righteous man will one die: yet peradventure for a good man some would even dare to die. 8But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. 9Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him.)May everyone that see this and their loved ones, do those things that will benefit them for eternity. Stay in HIS DIVINE FAVOR my friend 1!!!

Sometimes when i look around, all i see is misery, despair, frustration and pain...
Then, i close my eyes, take a couple deep breaths, RELAX...And ask myself, "WHAT IF all I saw was what I WANTED TO SEE?" Then, I open my eyes. I see the sun, I see the blue sky, I see my girls smiling back at me, I see life...
And then, lo and behold, I see nothing but OPPORTUNITY...
