Yes, I did escape the jack hammer loco motion...and now that things are set in concrete...our JBBQ "guys" suggested it was
time to post FIRST on the Great Stan Getz Community our new
song...which we have written/recorded/dedicated to the original
one and only "sweet -N- saxy" jazz buff of MySpace and other
Internet renown.....namely YOU...Joan DesCarpentier!!! The song
is called, naturally, "SO SWEET -N- SAXY"...and is heartfelt sax
jazz intended to express our joy and appreciation that you are now one of us...our "pardner in music crime" with Dr. Bob's Jazz
Boppin' Bebop Quartet - JBBQ. Your song is listed as # 1 on My Page - SGC and will soon also be on my two MySpace sites as well as other music venues in the near future.

Thank you for being you, Joan...as you so light up our lives...and enrich life for all others who know and love you!!!!!

With Love Always,
XXXXXXXXXXXX {"AYLI"}

Its been crazy here. We are both looking for a good and affordable dentist. Its easy to find a good dentist but to find an affordable one is turning out to be quest. We saw 3 this week alone for consults. The last one we saw was friendly and all but we learned he had felony charges for useing laughing gas on him self. His picture was in the newspaper and all. We'll call and fill you in on all the details. Its way to long of a story. We send all our love. TTYS

Legends such as Stan do get to, in a sense, live on forever because of their beautiful contribution to this world. It is wonderful to see articles such as this, as well as many features on living jazz legends such as pianist Hank Jones, who just turned 90 this month!

xoxo and keep in touch,
Marla

Love the fact that you like the accent he-he.
It's always a problem when you're speaking, or trying to speak, another language if people understand what you're trying to say and if one can find the right words LOL.
Thank you again.
Hugs
Hilde

Sorry for the delay in response... I've only just logged back on. WOW, you live in Steiner Ranch, one of my dearest friends lives out there although I never make it up as I live downtown. Unfortunately, I don't know much about any other jazz "hotspots" here besides The Elephant Room, which is AWESOME! It's the only place I've ever gone for jazz here. It's on S. Congresss in the basement below Kyoto sushi restaurant. My perfect evening is to visit both ;-) Sorry I couldn't be more help. Have a wonderful weekend Joan!
HUGS!

I love your 13 "Great Food for Thought and Application" information and if I can someday put into practice about 1/2 of them, I'll be in great shape!

thanks for the "Pennies from Heaven" info. Very detailed analysis.

At 9:09pm on November 9, 2008, frankeric said…: Hey kid. Hope all is well. I'm in my 7th month of playing my forever tenor and taking lessons. Progress? 2 steps ahead and 1 back, good days and so so days. At least there are'nt bad ones.
I had a new teacher Saturday, actually it's my regular's hubby a college prof. Good session with lots of talk about style. And of course Stan's name came up. I will / can I ever be anything like him. Not enough years left and different circumstances and times. But boy, do I love his playing and I know you do too.
Anyway, when you don't hear from me for awhile don't think I'm not thinking of you and Bev and all the others.
As Bev says: hugs and kisses
