Daily Music and Stories from the organist & accordionist Jon Hammond, today's story about what's behind some of my music, or "Behind the Beat" as my good friend Steven
Rosenfeld says in his most excellent journalism! Thankfully I met the late great Sonny Stitt and hung with him when I was playing nightly in Boston's Combat Zone and Sonny
would relentlessly expound to me the importance of The Melody - "Melody is King" and the funky beat! Here we get in to some of it, stay safe out there everybody and make sure
to mask up in public during the hideous pandemic! Jon Hammond told ya' so - I'll be back tomorrow with another Hammond Report,
