JAZZ: Ray Santisi, Rakalam Bob Moses and Marshall Adams trio CD

Here's our package: A plastic envelope with my favorite Ray Santisi watercolor from
the Sunday Morning Jazz Brunch at RYLES, over Stu Vandermark's review in the August
issue of Cadence Magazine. Turned over we've got the wide watercolor from the bar
and several more watercolors of Patricia, Ray again, Nick Joyce who recorded the gig,
Marshall, Rakalam Bob Moses, and one of Frank Wilkins. All wrapped with what Kat
insists (because she finds editing them impossible) are my poesies in red printing.
We slip the trio CD into the lower right corner where you can read a bit more BUZZ.

An appreciative cadre of Ray Santisi listeners admiring where Ray and Patricia Adams visit.... So
last first Sunday's Ryles JAZZ Brunch for both sets I'm on only Ray Santisi's piano moves and I've
wanted sometime to get Ray at the piano. Catch little moves... leans and shift surprises on chords...
his left hand move... rolling it out 'n over palm up and down-stroking with his left hand's fifth the liittle
finger's flat sharply hit a just right and unexpected bass key. Laterfelt I lost him under some clumsy
late Sunday weary watercoloring. I let Ray rest four days then found this there by Friday evening.
