Nancie Beaven posted about this neat event. It was a stunner and the first
time I ever got to play with Rio Clemente, a jazz master. He is a fabulous
jazz pianist and a fabulous guy. Memorable tunes with him were H.C.'s
"New Orleans" and "Avalon".

To hear this GIANT, see below. About halfway through, he gets to Gershwin
and Liza and snips from "Rhapsody in Blue". WOW. He does it all.

Thanks you Bill Taggart for hosting the event.

Cheers,
Steve Barbone
