A year or so ago, some of our members attended one of Jeff's first performances at his new digs The Roadhouse with his beloved Jazz Wizards.
We also had the wonderful opportunity of attending Jeff's last live performance with his blues band at his Roadhouse and to participate in the taping of his last CD. A night I'm sure none of us will soon forget.
And there have been made more visits to see Jeff and other musicians at the Roadhouse in between.

Today is an opportunity to return to Jeff's Roadhouse to pay honour to this great blues and jazz man!
