RAY JOZWIAK
Ray is the originator, and chief perpetrator of “Gonzo Piano”, defined as idiosyncratically subjective, but engaging. This creative approach to Jazz has earned Ray the reputation of innovator and experimentalist.

RONNY SMITH AND FRIENDS
Ronny and his high powered band will get the show jumping. He has released 6 CD’s of original music, and published 3 books. Most importantly he served our country for over 30 years in the US Army Jazz Band delivering morale, community outreach and world outreach.

JOSH BAYER TRIO
This world class guitar player is back with his trio for another wonderful show. Josh is on the faculty of American University, teaching improvisational Jazz, and leading the AU big band. A good friend to this venue, he’s is the epitome of the performer/educator, who has the talent and the ethos to share it with others.

Wine . . .

(from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_wine)

". . . The earliest archaeological evidence of wine has been found at sites in China (c. 7000 BC), Georgia (c. 6000 BC), Iran (c. 5000 BC),[7][8] Greece (c. 4500 BC), and Sicily (c. 4000 BC) The oldest evidence of wine production has been found in Georgia (ca. 6,000–5,800 BC). . . The altered consciousness produced by wine has been considered religious since its origin. The ancient Greeks worshiped Dionysus or Bacchus and the Ancient Romans carried on his cult. Consumption of ritual wine was part of Jewish practice since Biblical times and, as part of the eucharist commemorating Jesus's Last Supper, became even more essential to the Christian Church. Although Islam nominally forbade the production or consumption of wine, during its Golden Age, alchemists such as Geber pioneered wine's distillation for medicinal and industrial purposes such as the production of perfume. . . . Wine production and consumption increased, burgeoning from the 15th century onwards as part of European expansion. Despite the devastating 1887 phylloxera louse infestation, modern science and technology adapted and industrial wine production and wine consumption now occur throughout the world. . ."

Elk Run . . .

(from https://elkrun.com/events/)
Elk Run Vineyards is nestled in the rolling hills of Frederick County surrounded by dairy and horse farms and fields of wheat and corn. The name “Elk Run” was chosen for a stream. The deed name to the property is the “Resurvey of Cold Friday.” It was a land grant from the King of England to Lord Baltimore. The winemaker’s home is circa 1756. Since 1983 Fred and Carol Wilson and Neill Bassford, along with associates, family and friends, have made Elk Run a shining star among American wine producers. Using new world research and technology while maintaining the traditions and values of old world practices, Elk Run’s focus is on producing high quality wine from high quality grapes. Soils of schist and shale allow for deep roots and good drainage. Seven to eight hundred foot elevations help keep the vineyard safe from frost danger. Warm days and cool nights preserve the fruity character in the wines.Practicing sustainable agriculture, close spacing and great attention to crop levels allow the wine maker to create wines of varietal character, structure, balance and good color.

Like. . .

. . . the vineyard tasting room quickly abandoned by the large group of young, professional-types and their limo driver (our 'tour guide', if you will). . .

. . . who predominantly occupies the lion's share of the tasting bar geography while inundating the atmosphere with boisterous, jocular, superficial chatter during our intended, peaceful, rejuvenating lunch break, the musician readily and sincerely empathizes. This for both the obliviousness and the indifference demonstrated by the general public in response to the honest, sincere, creative efforts put forth by individuals such as creators of fine, fermented beverages as well as the authors of those creative, original, eclectic musical endeavors with which they are confronted on a regular basis. . .

(Note: OHO was much appreciated by the audience at Elk Run Vineyard on this particular warm August night.)

So . . .

. . . many things. . .

. . . so little time . . .

. . . we must pick up wine for ________, it's on the way to the house. . . that's very close to _________vineyards, where we must pick up our September club selection . . . and _________vineyards is to the north just before we turn west to head for the house . . . but now we are wined out and should probably save the last one for another day . . . but there is more rain forecast than originally but we don't care because there are SOOOOO many wineries to visit that the weather is not really a concern but then we must be careful to restrain ourselves from excessive purchases since many now do ship to our location and if we bought everything we liked we would simply not have enough room to return home with all the personal items that we took with us in the first place . .

Drive . . .

. . . on down to Elk Run Vineyards this Friday. . .

. . . in your Limousine . . .

She comes out of the night she wrote every book you've read
Fingering her pearl(s) every bead a lover dead
She wears that feathered hat ends up burning on the bed
Her freedom ring's not cheap the beast the till both must be fed

We twins sit on this leather seat this woman this man
One lives the level of her heart the other's gland's in hand
She serves that wicked brew opens minds opens eyes
Holds up the looking glass cracks to cut the shame that binds

What is is what is not is too
This emptiness inside includes
The mystery awaiting moving you
To be released and not removed

And she runs me down in my limousine
And she picks me up in my limousine
And we drive it home give our breath away
Though I'm left alone no way am I the same

The hand extends the fingers eyed they fondle urging every word
You only have what you give up fluxing in the flow
Holding on to what you want will only keep it out of reach
And lock you up inside yourself and block epiphany

Read the beat the rhythm takes and gives
The bodies dance in primal play
Forever steps alive into today
Here each word points but does not say

And she runs me down in my limousine
And she picks me up in my limousine
And we drive it home give our breath away
Though I'm left alone no way am I the same

I'm at a slumber party where sleepwalkers roam

I heard her say "You can do bad on your own"

Shut down my head I vow poverty of speech

The flora's growing green upon my gnashing teeth

You make me know that what ain't mine ain't mine

I feel like I have been dispatched from time

Now there's no wind so I will grab my oars and row

So I start to laugh so hard I cry

It all goes away but never too late

It will not be late

Let me tell you something about your other face

I see it smiling there behind a veil of lace

Mary's dressing up her fish fillets

The juicy mango's calling for her blade

To pierce the silence of the desert as it waits

The virtue is there so just take it up

It waits through delay it surely comes

It will not be late

It will not be late

Just to lose you've got to stand up in the ring

Defeat it trickles like the dreams inside your dreams

I know you think that I'm a philistine

See the water changing into wine

Just a sip will turn the lights on in your head

You know I'll do the least that I can do

The eyes behind my head are watching you

The cock will crow the next time I am denied

It Will Not Be Late
