About Me


REALLY? A 100 year old SWINGER? Actually, I'm not THAT old! But I am a wannabee oldie and beyond. However, one jazzy day and year at a time is the best way to get there.
About the SWINGER part? Look in Webster's and you will find two prime definitions: "swinger....a : a lively up-to-date person who indulges in what is considered fashionable" AND b : [ you already know the usual meaning for that one]. I AM ONE OF THE ABOVE FIRST DEFINITION SWINGERS. Oh!...there is one other dictionary definition of "swinger"...It is "WHOPPER"...but that is not me...other than my Irish skills from kissing the magical Blarney Stone! Also, at my 1979 NDE - Near Death Experience - age of 40 (I'm ageless since in Body, Mind, and Spirit), I don't want any kids as cited. But for the record I have three wonderful adult children: Kathryn in New York; Julia in New Mexico; and Robert in Montana -- And I love to visit my "kids" and their families several times a year. SO LIFE IS GOOD!Finally, I joined MySpace.com for the sole reason of supporting singer KELLY FLINT -- and being included as her friend on www.myspace.com/kellyflint. I am most proud that Kelly is my NUMBER ONE FRIEND on my MySpace. Actually, she is my only real friend needed to complete my friends listing. However, I am happy that my MySpace Magic Circle of Eclectic Music Friends now totals MORE THAN ONE...AND COUNTING!! But check out Kelly's MySpace ASAP if you want to become a friend of a really great entertainer and, most importantly, a wonderful person to have as a true friend!!! Just click her MySpace avatar. Your True and Timeless Friend, DR. BOB (my friends call me Bob)..

My Interests


THE PHOTOGRAPHY OF ALBERT BROOKS @ www.albanyjazz.com --The above photo, and black and white pics for my MySpace, are the artistic works of Albert Brooks. I strongly recommend that you check out his truly GREAT JAZZ PHOTO/ESSAYS!!! I'm amazed at the professional quality of these live jazz performance photos. And Albert is not a "professional" photographer....but Jazz and Photography are his love and hobby! What Good Luck for MySpacers!!!

I'd like to meet:

ALL OF KELLY FLINT'S MYRIAD PRESENT AND FUTURE FRIENDS/FANS AROUND THE WORLD!

AND A BIT MORE ABOUT ME, MYSELF AND I - The following sums up my credo or philosophy of life: Astronomer Carl Sagan, in his classic book COSMOS, wrote: "We are made of starstuff." And writer Samuel Hoffenstein, in a little poem from a collection entitled YEAR IN, YOU'RE OUT mused: "Two and two are merely four/ And often less and never more,/ And I, for all the world's advance,/ An upright mammal wearing pants." RELATED...Listen to the above REVERBNATION music player - STAN GETZ selection called: "TK ON LIFE - FRAGILE RHYTHMS"....which was written and narrated by: EUKATAKTOS Z. THUMOLEON
