If you have ever caught The BrokenHearted- Tom Petty Tribute Band, you will understand why. When people speak of […]
It was a beautiful fall-like day along the Hudson River at Albany’s Jennings Landing. The sun poked in and out among the rolling clouds making for a beautiful setting for the Albany Riverfront Jazz Festival, which has been around for 18 years. A personal obligation kept me from arriving at the festival until the last […]
