I close my eyes and let the sweet sounds of Jazz envelope me and transport me to another time in life i could have been anywhere in the world a smoke filled bar in new orleans a street stall in spain endless was my choice for the quality of music echoing around the room was sublime....... sweet smooth silky vocals backed by the tempo of the washboard keeping time and intrigue with a delicate rythmn intricately woven within the beautiful acoustics of a guitar and the magic hands that skillfully sourced the notes with such a uniqueness allowing the man on wind to take you to places you only dreamt of lifting you up higher and higher a local experience with international flavours steeped in time and skill and wrapped in a smile so giving so warm so satisfying.............

About this poem:
This duet with the assistance of a friend playing warm up for a well known artist brought the house down with their original and amazing style .........A local pair leaving Oz to travel the world and play .....if you get the opportunity you must go and see them .......
A beautiful write describing a good share of unwinding with the dreads of day Nu.. Yes it is a soothing feeling feeding our soul when after a hard day's work, we do let our body enjoy and the mind to rest..and unwind...My experience in Port Douglas and Cairns and Brisbane on such a mood is so ever present in my mind.
Hey Nu, I can dig where you are coming from I will be sure to make a note, and should "Taylor & Silk" ever play near me, I will definitely go see them! I love Jazz too...Thanks for the "Heads-Up"! Great Write! Robert
