Russell Malone

I just got back home from my gig tonight, and I need to write about it because it was a special evening. My old friend and jazz guitar virtuoso Russell Malone arrived at the venue at the same time I did. Russell sat near the music and enjoyed a dinner while Mack and I played the first hour. For the next hour a small group of folks enjoyed the amazing talents of the one I consider to be the finest jazz guitarist on the planet. Trust me I don't toss words like that around lightly.

Compared to this man I am a total hack on the guitar, but for some reason he likes me and appreciates my ideas, work ethic and sensibilities. I am flattered. Thank you Russell.
