Your post has brought tears of PURE JOY to this "retired" musician's eyes. Baby girl is a fucking MONSTER as a MUSICIAN (in the good old Guild sense) a serious PLAYER AND she got pipes!

Can we get another rec or so round hyea, y'all?

8. And her hair is to die for, apart from everything else......

We'll just call her a triple threat and leave it at that! :bounce:

Both My stepdad and brother are accomplished Jazz musicians on the side (sax players) so I grew up

For one person to be that physically stunning and musically talented... wow. If I was a lesser woman, I may be a bit jealous my damned self! :)
