Doc!


Saturday night, we went to a local restaurant to see/hear some of our favorite local musicians (Gil, Cartas & Lobo), who have recently added Doc Severinsen and our drummer friend Rick Shlosser to their group. It was a pretty magical performance, as they cruised from jazz to flamenco to latin and blues, including a rendition of Ennio Morricone's theme from The Mission that never fails to elicit tears from the audience. Overall, lots of high energy and a sense that all the musicians seemed to be really enjoying themselves. P.S. To my non-musical ear, Doc still has some serious chops... even at 80-something. He moved down here last year and we've met him several times. He's a really gracious and interesting old guy. P.P.S. I think the group is working on an album. When/if it comes out, I'll let you know how to find it.

In the meantime, San Miguel continues to present us with a never-ending stream of surprising and delightful moments.
