TONIGHT on my @kmhd_jazz_radio show, I'm closing out the year by celebrating some of the soul, blues, R&B, & jazz musicians who departed in 2018. Here is the 2nd round of photos of the departed. Please join me 9 - 11 pm at 89.1 fm in #Portland or stream it worldwide at kmhd.org. . #EugenePitt #JodyWilliams #JaboStarks #EdwinHawkins #DeniseLasalle #WahWahWatson #OtisRush #MorganaKing #YvonneStaples #GaltMcDermot . #soulmusic #jazz #jazzvocals #theblues #rhythmNblues #rhythmAndBlues #motown https://www.instagram.com/p/Br6GjDPh0u5/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=scqy0vkt1rpk

As is a SnoBall tradition, along with celebrating the season THIS Saturday, we’ll also pay tribute to musicians who have passed away this year. We’ve lost a lot of folks whose music I regularly play at my events. It’s important to give gratitude for their contributions! ❤️ . #JaboStarks #DennisEdwards #EdwinHawkins #DonGardner #WahWahWatson #BigJayMcNeely #EugenePitt #BarbaraAlston #DeniseLasalle #ArethaFranklin #LazyLester #YvonneStaples #TonyJoeWhite #soulmusic https://www.instagram.com/p/Bq0flJGhaXw/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=13sgufiovh8vv

yesterday while I was teaching my classes about James Brown’s “Cold Sweat” and it’s importance in hip hop history, @thenaj informed me that #JaboStarks passed away. Jabo is one of the FUNKIEST drummers ever! sending love to his family and forever loving his grooves
