About Me

"LATE NITE DRIVE...explorations in Jazz that's sayin' something" is an independently produced musical expedition, currently in 'venue transition.' [Information forthcoming; as available.] This heart beats to contribute to broadening the focused audience and inspiring greater appreciation for critically-acclaimed improvisational music rich in 'creative genius.' Your chauffeur, BarneyJazz, shall stay the course on a commitment of responsiveness to imaginative influences (while yielding captive to none), in a search that hopefully often visits the musical crossroad where cherished memories intersect with renewal - as Jazz evolves. Dedication is steadfast, also, to an abiding reverence and respect for the courageous innovators who have gone before; those whose legacies ARE the cornerstone of this artform's accepted relevance, worldwide. As certainly they would agree: it really IS 'all about the music.' Let's DRIVE!

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Attention(!)...all folks with an interest in LIVE Jazz; living or visiting within the greater Atlanta (GA) area: visit www.iwasdoingallright.com for concert/club date information AND related "infotainment." Rick, the web site master, has his heart in the RIGHT PLACE; he is perfoming a great service for the local artists' community! [This is precisely the unbiased, non-commercial, all-inclusive "quick reference" ATL LIVE Jazz Scene site many of us have been longing to see emerge ABOVE ALL THE REST, for a long time, now.] It really IS 'all about the music.' -b.
