Take heed. James Moody is a spiritual master of life as well as music. While many talk of racial prejudice, Mr. Moody has lived through the absolute worst of it. At age 75 ( can you believe it? He doesn't look a day over 50!), James has seen the most horrible examples of Jim Crow, and not only survived, but transcended the cruelty and pettiness of this world to become a true hero and role model who all of us would do well to learn from. If you don't believe me, check out this album. Every note he plays speaks the truth of his vast experience. This album is some of the most representative examples of Moody's brilliant playing. Please don't miss out on this living legend.
