One of the great living music masters of New Orleans music, Shannon Powell, suffered a stroke and he and his family need our help.
He has given so much to so many, especially young musicians. Let’s do what we can to pitch in and help.

Jerry González recalls his friendship with bass legend Jaco Pastorius.
Jerry’s explanations of the clave and the behind-the-scenes time that goes into great music are absolutely priceless.
Ends with a rare recording of a collaboration: Jerry González/Jaco Pastorius at the late/great 55 Grand in Soho, NY.
Another clip from the film and another lesson about musical reality
Victory Bailey picked up a bass and was a pro from Minute One. How the heck does that happen?

The year was 1984.
David Letterman had an audience in the millions and he invited David Amram on to demonstrate the instruments in his collection.,
This might be the biggest group of people ever to get a lesson in world music.
