Today is International Jazz Day which is Herbie Hancocks effort to bring attention to the music. There are live concerts and an emphasis on international to help people understand what a global music and language #jazz really is. Created in America by African Americans, it is now played and enjoyed by people on almost every nation on earth. For those who dont get it - cool - but I say give it a listen. There are rewarding and inspiring things to find once you peel back a few layers. It takes repeated listenings and a willingness to step outside of your comfort zone. Check out some Louis Armstrong and then some Ella Fitzgerald. Work your way to Miles and before you know it youll be digging late Trane like me. Believe you me, its addicting!
