“Over all, I think the main thing a musician would like to do is give a picture to the listener of the many wonderful things that he knows of and senses in the universe. . . That’s what I would like to do. I think that’s one of the greatest things you can do in life and we all try to do it in some way. The musician’s is through his music.” - John Coltrane


 
   

New JAM Videos!
 

The incomparable Oscar Jackson introduces the students at the Vineville Academy for the Performing Arts in Macon, GA to the instruments and musicians of the JAM ensemble while performing Charlie Parker's tune "Now's the Time" aka "The Hucklebuck". Following solos by each, the Mighty Bob on Bass gives us some excellent scat singing along with his bass solo.

 

Join the JAM Ensemble (Edward Clark on sax, Jerry Mullins on trumpet, Neil Rigole on Keyboards, K-Mo on bass, and Bruce Clark on drums) as they and JAM friends and families jam along their way down the 2007 Cherry Blossom Parade route in downtown Macon, GA. The bandwagon was full as Papa Clark maneuvered the tractor through the appreciative crowds that always give a warm response to JAM!
