Special Note:
Many of you have commented to me about how much you enjoyed our Christmas & New Year’s Card & Cookbook. I’ve had literally hundreds of people write about the recipes they have tried and loved. Therefore, I will leave the cookbook portion of the card online for a while longer. You can get to it by clicking here .First, thanks for stopping by my Webjazz MySpace! Glad to have you!
My name is Dean and I LIVE JAZZ. Through Webjazz.net , I promote Kansas City jazz and jazz artists with Kansas City jazz connections. Our client list includes Karrin Allyson , Danny Embrey , Mike Metheny , Paul Smith , Todd Strait, Bob Bowman, ..Vince Bilardo , Tim Whitmer , Marilyn Maye , SoundTrek Studios , HotJazzNYC.com , JazzPins.com , The Phoenix Piano Bar & Grill , Mel Wanzo Scholarship Fund , and many many more.
I write Hampton’s Hot Licks column for JAM Magazine after being Director of the magazine for 12 years for the Kansas City Jazz Ambassadors (KCJA) . KCJA is a 400+ member jazz society. I also serve on the Advisory Board of the CODA Jazz Fund . Coda provides financial assistance to pay for costs associated with burial and funeral expenses for career jazz musicians.
In August 2005 I produced “Celebrating Bird,†the Charlie “Bird†Parker Gravesite Birthday Celebration. This event was covered by the BBC as part of their production of the TV movie, “The Charlie Parker Story,†the very best documentary I have ever seen about this jazz giant. (Unfortunately, their movie will probably never be shown in the United States.) The Celebrating Bird includes jazz musicians paying tribute to the man who changed the course of jazz. We did it again in 2006 and will do it again in ‘07 on August 26th, the August Sunday closest to Bird’s actual birthday - August 29th. Feel free to come join it at Bird’s gravesite. Check back here for details.
Go hear or play some hot jazz tonight!
