It's time for a little direction after yesterday's introspection! I'm bringing you a 2 week special just to give you a starting point as you embark on your Journey into Jazz!!

In week one, beginning tomorrow, I'll present a gorgeous cocktail of jazz standards, classic jazz tunes and jazz instrumentals from icons like the The Gershwins, Ella Fitzgerald, Duke Ellington, Thelonius Monk and more. I may even bring you TWO a day, if you're real good. 😉

And in the following week, I showcase comparisons with examples of modern forms of jazz. For example, Acid Jazz, Pop Jazz and even Post Modern Jukebox (PMJ), where Pop songs are given a new lease of life, thanks to the innovative improvisateurs that will adorn this list.

So sit back and enjoy that mojito while you soak up the sun for the rest of your Sunday and look forward to a most intoxicating week ahead!
