Al Waters will be on saxophone accompanied by Bob Fraioli on Piano
Need not remind you how great it is to hear a real pro............For jazz saxophonist Al Waters, the music that became stuck in his head as a child wound up guiding him to a rich, harmonious life. "Waters grew up watching Popeye and his nemesis, Bluto, fight to a tune called "The Spinach Overture," a song he later learned was based on the classical "Poet and Peasant Overture." He lived in the Davis Street area, right behind the old Isaiah Blocker Junior High School, where sounds from the band that practiced there wafted into the air and into his consciousness."
