Ronny Jordan RIP

 
Wow! Just blown away only just found out today courtesy of Jazzwise magazine.
I suppose that's one of the hazards of working miles from home with limited communications.
A fantastic artist that opened the eyes and ears of a whole new generation to jazz.
Tribute show to follow RIP Ronny Jordan.
