I know, I know; been awhile

So I have a wounded wing; little shoulder surgery; apologizing upfront for any typing errors. (DISCLAIMER - I type to create emphasis and emotion - many grammatical rules will be broken)

I have made an observation - we apparently order so many Amazon packages that the bad guys have decided they cannot keep up with us; thus, so far, no snatching off the front porch! (Sound of knocking on wood)

I received a message from Amazon the other day congratulating me on saving $413 so far this year - they should see my bank account before they so carelessly send that. My math teacher father would say that's Washington math.

My lovely wife says I should tell you all why the surgery; I do not agree to full disclosure. Let's just say that I fell while putting on my pajamas. Sounds like a Groucho Marx skit.

It is a puzzlement, though, just how many projects I want to do right now, but alas, cannot. Can anyone see my pitiful sorry face emoji right now?

In all seriousness though, well at least what I can muster, I have been working on music projects.

I was thrilled to perform at the Western MO Medical Center fundraiser last month. They wanted a Vegas theme, I said I can do that. Little did I know that when I called the guitar legend, the myth, Tony Shaffer, he said, "Jeff, I haven't even seen those jazz chords since Jaggy's Supper Club 20 years ago." That made my sacroiliac tingle; I love that word.

I said, well, we better get practicing.

I called an old trumpet friend, UCM Music Chair Alan Wenger, he said yes (little did he know what he was getting into.)

We practiced, we went and played, and nailed it - so much fun to sing those old jazz standards!

I have successfully released 6 singles of my favorites from Jaggy's Supper Club on all music streaming platforms - Amazon Music, iTunes, Apple Music, Spotify, YouTube Music, iHeart, Pandora, and 16 other stations. Hope you can check them out! I'm thinking about putting them on an EP Album as well. I do plan on recording some more songs here in Jaggy's Studio, so just be watching on social media for release info.

I am also working on a new project - Jaggy's Jukebox! This will be a weekly Internet Radio Station where I'll be playing the biggest hits from the 40's, 50's & 60's. No rock, no roll. Just some of the best music ever recorded, that no one plays anymore, until now. Stay Tuned!

Ok, enough for now, my bad arm is yelling STOP!!

Until next time, whenever that is, stay cool.
