Think about love and making love. I hear Candy Dulfer. She is so amazing.

The problem with Franco Pepe Kalle is that he is a unpredictable character. There is surprising info about this man. You think he only likes Franco and Pepe Kalle but when you find out that he hears other artists, you are shock.

Girls are the sexy thing that God created.

Important to notice FPK.

My favorite jazz standard is free jazz. There is just something about free jazz that makes my mind feel like pudding.

Take the A' Train. Although my favorite jazz tune every is "Weather Bird" by Louis Armstrong and Earl Hines. Two of the greatest musicians at their respective instruments having a little dance together. It's marvelous stuff.
