Chuck Nessa Posted March 2, 2005 Report Posted March 2, 2005 Garth? Is that the reading/writing/critic guy with the Defranco fixation? If so, Happy Birthday. B-) Quote
Larry Kart Posted March 2, 2005 Report Posted March 2, 2005 Happy Birthday to a man of exquisite musical taste ... by which I mean that I think we like a lot of the same things. Quote
AllenLowe Posted March 2, 2005 Report Posted March 2, 2005 Garth - didn't he send me money once? How can you not like a guy like that? Quote
brownie Posted March 2, 2005 Report Posted March 2, 2005 A very happy Birthday to you Tell us all about the Buddy de Franco you'll be listening to today Quote
garthsj Posted March 2, 2005 Report Posted March 2, 2005 WOW! Thanks guys ... What a wonderful surprise to find all of these messages ... totally unexpected. But I did want to mention that I have registered for gifts at Dusty Groove (The Bastards!) ... my wish list can be found there. I plan a day listening to DeFranco, Tony Scott, and this interesting "new" clarinet player, Mort Weiss, who at age 70 has just started playing (and playing well) again. I am thinking of getting my clarinet out of mothballs, except my dog runs for the backdoor everytime I start to practice! What a great group this is .... I get far more enjoyment from youse guys than my colleagues at the university, none of whom are jazz fans. (You can sample Mort Weiss at SMSJazz.com) Quote
maren Posted March 3, 2005 Report Posted March 3, 2005 Have a great birthday, Garth! (You can either light the candles, or save them for me to light in 12 years... Quote
Brad Posted March 3, 2005 Report Posted March 3, 2005 Hope you listened to a lot of Buddy today Garth. :rsmile: Quote
garthsj Posted March 3, 2005 Report Posted March 3, 2005 On the day after .... facing reality, and enjoying life ..... THANKS to all my friends who took the time to send me good wishes ... I do appreciate the comradeship found on this board ... and the love of the music which is so obvious here. Now, if only we could convince the rest of the world how beautiful this music can be ...
