I'm not here to meet anyone like THAT. Anyone that's about doing good for all, not just themselves.
I love much too much music to try and name it all. Some artists that I love are Stevie Wonder, Prince, Motown (60's and some 70's), James Brown, Bobby Hutcherson, Dave Friedman (the keyboard malleteer), Gary Burton, Milt jackson, Monte Croft, Steve Nelson, Joe Locke, Stefon Harris, Lionel Hampton, Ray Brown, Oscar Pettiford, Ron Carter, Buster Williams, Herbie Hancock, McCoy Tyner, Elvin Jones, Art Blakey, Roy Haynes, Arthur Taylor, Tony Williams, Duke Pearson, Duke Ellington, Freddie Hubbard, Count Basie, Lester Young, Wayne Shorter, Joe Henderson, Sonny Rollins, Harold Land, John Coltrane, Wes Montgomery, Oliver Nelson, Quincy Jones, etc. Villa-Lobos, Bach, Grieg, Rachmaninoff, Prokofiev, Sibelius, Handel, Vivaldi, Dvorak, Barber. I've yet to scratch the surface but you see where I'm going....
I don't get to the movies much, a few times a year, maybe. All time favs, though: Cooley High, Coming to America, Amelie, Bend it Like Beckham, 25th Hour, American Beauty, Shrek 1, 2 and 3, to name a few.
When I used to watch, Law and Order (the original, NO spin-offs), Judging Amy, ER, 60 Minutes, Cold Case (the cases happen in Philly. What do you expect?), Cold Case Files, Forensic Files, The Soup.
Autobioghraphies and some fiction. I'm not much of a reader. Books are my sleeping pills. I'll leave it at that.
