Torn

I'm really in a dilemma trying to decide how to spend my weekend. Ashford and Simpson are playing at the Razz Room of the Nikko Hotel the same night Minnie Riperton is appearing at the Fox Theater on Market Street. Why do all the good acts come to town the same weekend?

Reports are out that Minnie blew them away at Jazzfest in New Orleans. I'm glad she's finally getting the respect she deserves.

My favorite Ashford and Simpson tune is their instrumental "Bourgie, Bourgie". My favorite tune of Minnie's is "Memory Lane". Enjoy and say hi if you see me in my box seat at the Fox.
