  1. Why do you want to show people where you live? Are you sure that's safe?
  2. Did not. I found the Tampa-St. Pete driving infrastructure at the time to be hopelessly constipated and stayed home as much as possible. No expressways, red lights all the way on every damn street/road. Every damn one of them. Drives that on the map looked like they would be 10-15 minutes ended up taking 30+. I understand it's better now? I sure hope so! As I recall, Drew Jr. was working in a "smooth jazz" club/restaurant playing what I assume was that type of music. The only "real" jazz club was in Clearwater(?), and hour+ drive, and that place had a house band that had been there forever. Not a bad band, really, but nobody sat in on that gig, I was told. One more reason to just stay home and take care of the kids day and night. Truthfully, we did not enjoy our time there at all.
  3. 1990-91
  4. Wish well to all those in any portion of the storm's path. We lived in Tampa for a year and a half back in the day. Tampa itself was always thought to be "immune" from a storm making landfall, but here we go now....and as you cross that longass bridge to get over to St. Pete and all that,,,lots of properties built not too far off the coastal shores...Yikes. All, please do take care.
  5. Yep! Funny...I remember a review of some Gary Thomas album (maybe this one) that said something to the effect that Gary Thomas wrote such complicated music that it made the (then) recent Wayne Shorter records sound like nursery rhymes (or something like that),,,and that in no way meant as a dis on Wayne.

  7. Later Bud...I always wonder what's going on in his head during the pauses in his playing.

    I've seen him twice, in different Roscoe Mitchell groups. Simply put, a seriously badass trumpeter and musician.
  9. After weighing all the data, I'll stick with Shari

  11. Teams ain't what they used to be.
  12. Skipping the bombastic belting of the title cut, one is left with a somewhat delightful record of familiar and quirkily unfamiliar songs, all arranged by Torrie Zito, who does indeed have his cake and eats it too!
  13. Team? As in there is a game going on?Please explain? She should have changed her last name to Gershwin?
  14. Whoa....sure hope the business is positioned to continue, RIP.

  19. That's the first Pharaoh I heard...some compilation record, on the radio. I can't remember where, but yes. Immediately riveting connection, amazement, and fascination that has yet to cease.
