There's just something about the sound of a "horn" that will always remind me of jazz. The way Roy Hargrove plays and the sound is just classic jazz. I don't have a lot of info on Roy or any of the other artists I post about. I just know them by name, like what they play and let me ears guide. Me. I'm gently taking you by the ear and turning your ear this way.

The clip below is called "The Joint". Let your ears take a puff of this!



Maaaaaan!!! I can just close my eyes and let this "joint" take me to la-la land. Close your eyes, let your ears take a puff, let the rhythm of these smoky notes meander through the veins of your soul and take you to that little cloud of ecstacy called jazz heaven. Inhale... hold it... hold it... suck up every note 'til it sends the euphoric wave of pleasure into your senses and your scalp tingles. Can you hear it? Can you feel it?
