This show was inspired by possibly the greatest B3 Summit ever held in the history of Jazz
Central which included B3 Legend Lincoln Berry, B3 phenom Tony Monaco & accomplished
student of both musicians, John Slate on B3 electric piano AND B3 organ, whew! One might
challenge my "greatest" assessment going back to the days of Hank Marr, but Hank is included
in the show today as well. [There has been one other such memorable gathering in recent
memory which included the B3 thunder from the land down under (the land down under),
Adrienne Hindemarsh on B3], plus I continue to examine The Jazz Masters Series.
