There they were,
Just three of them on stage,
Sixteen strings amongst them.
Six on each of two guitars
Four on the bass
And they played,
They played and this sound,
This incredible sound came,
Came and surrounded us all.
A sound taking me right back,
Right back to those sounds of old
Where jazz was coming to the fore.
They changed their instruments
And blew the night away.
Emily joined them and sang,
Sang with a voice that called,
Called me back to that age,
That age of a hundred years ago
Where jazz became king.
It’s long, long journey continued,
Continued up to now
And will continue,
Continue way into the future.
That’s Jazz.
