Sometimes I tend to be a few years behind on music. This is not always a bad thing, actually. I find it a great thing when I “discover” a new band (new to me, that is) and am able to go and check out their entire back catalog, not just the one album I heard […]

Ten Questions for Drop Trio
September 19th, 2003 · Comments Off on Ten Questions for Drop Trio
A month or so ago, a friend of mine told me to check out a local band called Drop Trio. He said they were a great jazz-funk trio in the same vein as Medeski, Martin and Wood. With a comparison like that, who could resist? I immediately found their web site, downloaded some music, liked […]

And the rain just makes it worse.
RIP Johnny Cash. We’ll miss you, brother.

And found my […]

David Garza
September 9th, 2003 · Comments Off on David Garza
