Video Available soon on line at, www.Fortressrecords.US.
75% of the people who watch to this video will not truly take it to heart.
22% of the people will recieve it and apply what he says for a little while, until it is then chocked out by the cares of this world. (Like he was saying at the end.)
3% will apply the concepts and their lives will be changed.
Who's in the 3%?

@changeofaddress1 there typically aren't many black people that are into jazz, contrary to popular belief. i play in a jazz band and i rarely see black people watching. sure, jazz has its black roots, but most black people, sadly, aren't interested in jazz as much as hip hop.

at the beginning, does he say that there being a lot of black people at the gig is not normal for jazz? if i heard that right, i don't get it. why would there typically be more white (or other?) than black people at a jazz gig?

Kind words, I wonder what Wynton would say about ELEW though...

Takes one to know one. Marsalis is a first class musician as well. We are blessed to be contemporaries.
