super duper night, Shar - wish you were here too :) The cats were rockin', John Dokes is a one man show in himself and new songbird Hilary Gardner is stopping folks in their tracks (or at least their triple steps!).

George Gee Swing Orchestra The first-ever meeting of future bandleader Gee and legendary bandman Count Basie in 1979. The exact moment when it all came together for GG. Gee is the one on the left ;P

Mr. Basie shared with me so many pearls of wisdom - the funny thing is none of them were music-related! All about family and preservance. Treat others the way you want to be treated....period. Watching him commanding the respect and love of all his musicians (i.e. FAMILY) made me understood what is always so special about a group of musicians (... Read moreartist) with a common goal and direction. He can "command" because he "deserves." I'd like to think I am doing Mr. Basie's legacy proper, but I still have so much more to go.....

In 2004 we had the great fortune of collaborating on a recording project with the legendary jazz composer/arranger/bandleader/saxophonist/NEA Jazzmaster Frank Foster (Shiny Stockings!). This CD is the end result and now in 2009, we are still very proud of the results. It even snuck onto the Top 100 in the jazz charts... when it first came out! Classic 17pc. Big Band Jazz and still very danceable, of course! The only non-Foster song is a Dawn Hampton original ("I Don't Want To Learn To Sing The Blues")! CD and mp3 downloads available at CDBaby and iTunes.Read more
