All the Things You Are × 7 ...

(Dedicated to Craig Kalsa, an old friend and 20 year guided client, one of the more intelligent and jovial people I have had by my side for many years,
in hospice today, taking in the last of what is, and soon on his way out the door ... one rendition for each of his decades)

Norah Jones, what a gift to the world!
I hope she gets half the joy from life that she gives to the rest of us; if so, she's living richly indeed!

Side note: Nora and my wife, Lisa, share the same alma mater, University of North Texas.
We get their newsletter, and a while back one of them featured Norah.
In some ways Norah Jones' success is due to the 1971 Cadillac she drove at UNT.

"That car was really awesome," she says. "It was just perfect — beautiful and huge."

Because she drove a big car, Jones got the assignment to pick up jazz bassist Marc Johnson and his band from Denton's Radisson Hotel and bring them to campus for the clinic they were teaching.

Johnson's band included Jesse Harris, Tony Scherr and Kenny Wollesen, who all had a hand in the creation of Jones' much lauded debut album, Come Away With Me.

"That short ride from across the highway is, I guess, what started all of this," she says, "all of this" being a rather casual allusion to her exploding fame

And a more recent installment:
When UNT alumna and Grammy Award-winning musician Norah Jones visited campus Sept. 21, she received one of UNT's most prestigious awards and gave jazz students an education on the music industry.

President Neal Smatresk presented Jones with the Presidential Medal of Honor -- the highest medal given by the university. She was in Denton to perform as part of the Oaktopia music festival, of which UNT was the premier sponsor.

"What's up, y'all?" Jones greeted the students packed into the Music Building's Recital Hall. "It (the building) looks the same."

The inflection with which Billy renders the word time is absolutely haunting.

Marlow, last night we watched a Netflix documentary "I called him Morgan". Excellent!
One of the scenes shows him staying for a month near Hermosa Beach, CA, to play at a jazz club called the Lighthouse Cafe. It's still there. We're planning to check it out sometime.

Marlow, man that ensemble is an embarrassment of riches! Thanks for listing the names of the players.
Also, I'm always thirsty for vibes and clarinet in jazz.

Hooblie! Okay, Joshua Breakstone sure has a lot of great material.
I listened to one of his performances on YouTube the other day and just let it run from one to the next: it was like Breakstone radio for about two hours straight.

Una Mae Carlisle: Yes Yanqui, here's to sassy, intelligent, and self-possessed women. No shortage of them where jazz singers reign!

In a perfect world, the four of us would have a night out at a jazz club, if just once!
Would make a good TR. Or just a good trip.
