Sorry for the off topic post, but a good friend of mine forwarded this to me and I thought it was worth sharing. Wynton is one of my musical hero's and gave an inspiring speech for Martin Luther King Jr. day at Tulane yesterday. http://www2.tulane.edu/marsalis011606.cfm
If you haven't seen it already, Wynton is in the new Apple iTunes/iPod ads. Great stuff.
enjoy,
Deano

Thanks for the link Gabe. That's a great feature! It's helping to reinforce my admiration for Wynton.

Jim,
That was very cool. We hope that folks don't remember MLK as just a day off from work. Wynton is an incredible and talented musician, the Boston Symphony played one of his works last year, All Rise. I highly reccomend a listen for those who have never heard the piece. We also did an interactive web piece on our website. If you have a moment please check it out, Wynton is towards the bottom of the page.
