It’s a Pisces Party
Pisces Pat Prescott and Barbara Blake
celebrate the music and life of jazz great,
March-born Al Jarreau
March 12, 1940 – February 12, 2017
Pat Prescott and I are both Pisces, born two days apart, she on March 10 and I on March 12. Al Jarreau’s birthday was the same day as mine. Pat and I each had the pleasure of interviewing Al about a year before his passing. He had just released his own tribute to lifelong friend and musical companion, the late George Duke, My Old Friend. It went straight to No.1 on Billboard’s jazz chart.
Below are players with each of our interviews. They’re our birthday present to you. Happy Birthday Pisces, Happy Birthday Al Jarreau, singing with the angels. Thank you for the gifts you left with us. For more about Al, his life and last wishes, check his website here.
All the best,
Barbara
