I did three recordings of Wolverine, all different in approach. As much of an improviser as Jelly was I can imagine that in his later years he would have led us again to the future. He was not a static musician, he listened to all music and then interpreted as he felt the music. That is what made him a genius, he valued the past and the future! Jelly has not left the building!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
For a sample of Jim's own compositions check out "Proficiency", "Taking THe Fifth" and "Sitting on Manhattan". These are posted on YouTube. On the web site you can hear more originals,"Blues For Mr. SeaPea" and "Out of the Blue Came Hugh". Thanks for listening
Very nice! And I agree with your comment about Jelly not being static...make the music breathe!

A very nice different treatment, and Jelly says he didn't mind your liberties at all.
