JAZZING ON THE RIVER!
Partly what I do, will put me in a situation that I really can appreciate the opportunity of enjoying music in its pure form and last night was one of those nights. Another beautiful evening down on the riverfront of Detroit at the Chene Park amphitheater for one of the Wednesday jazz night series' concert. This night brought out a night of jazz legends, but before they took to the stage a talented young artist by the name of Justin Young performed and this cat was bad. He had the crowd jamming to a mix of uptempo songs that he played on his horn piece. Next up was jazz keyboardist Lonnie Liston Smith, then Tom Browne who would later be joined by Ronnie Laws for a jazz jam session. Closing out the night of the jazz musical feast was the man himself Roy Ayers who brought it all home with his legendary classic hits. He had the nearly sold out theater up and grooving as he took them on a trip back down memory lane. Oh what a night! There is nothing like a beautiful night concert at Chene Park and if you have not indulged yet, there are still some hot shows to catch. Go towww.CheneParkDetroit.com to get the listing of upcoming shows.
This is my life, the life of THE REEL HUSTLER!!!
