Air J Jazz Festival ends on high note

WESTERN BUREAU:

With synchronised precision, soul music hit makers, Russell Thompkins Jr. and The New Stylistics wowed the hearts of jazz fans on the final night of the 10th Annual Air Jamaica Jazz and Blues Festival in Montego Bay on Saturday.

Deft dance moves from a group known for some of the most infectious songs of the 1970s and perhaps the smoothest falsetto lead vocalist in Russell Thompkins Jr. performed to worshipping women and seemingly stunned men.

Taking the wind out of the much-touted Earth, Wind and Fire, the new Stylistics almost poured water on any apparent flames from their counterparts.

UNPARALLELED SHOWMANSHIP

Succeeding incredibly in weaving a chorus out of the entire venue of diverse nationalities, the double-platinum, Grammy-nominated high-voltage group delivered unparalleled showmanship with hits You Are Everything,

Children of the Night, and You Make Me Feel Brand New, taking home the top performance award from the satisfied audience.

Even those who could only croak their notes were compelled to repeat the words to You'll Never Get To Heaven, Betcha by Golly Wow and Hurry Up This Way Again.

Baby Boomers Rock Troops With Classic Rock 'N Roll CD

		Over the years I’ve become very patriotic. Perhaps its unusual that a rock ‘n roll guy who was born in Canada might love living the US.  But I think this is the best country in the world.  For the past year or so, I’ve had a song rattling around in my brain called Red White Blue & True.  During the summers I play in a 60’s rock ‘n roll band known as: "The Invictas".  We started the band when we were in college and a few years ago I reunited the band.  As we approached the end of the playing this summer I decided it was time to complete the song and get it recorded.  The band is based in Rochester NY, I live in Charlotte NC and there was a lot of work to be done.
