Friends, family members and fans can help this effort by posting photos and info about their favorites on their own page so we can tell a more complete story than just listing the names. You can also post some of their music if you have it so visitors can learn why they were great. We have the opportunity to do more than list names here. My personal list of important Pittsburgh jazz artists has over 1200 names on it, some of them famous and others known only to a few. This network offers an equal opportunity for each member to promote their favorites and their musical tastes. It's all built into your page as you learn to use its capabilities. I'll be visiting your page to see how you are doing.</b> Way to go Nelson.

Nelson...."the era of world music" is misleading. "World Music" is a marketing term that for over 20 years has been used to separate genres, not bring them together. That is why there is a separate music chart depicting thi as there are for Jazz, Blues, Rock, R&B, Reggae, Smooth Jazz, etc..<br />

The folks from this area through their work have transended boundries and I have publicly highlighted this in the exhibit I did a few years ago titled "Our Musical Legacy". I'll post the photos here on…
