Last night Ken and I saw Ellis Marsalis play at Snug Harbor jazz bistro in the New Orleans French Quarter. Ken is an avid jazz fan and while I love music of all kinds, I am sort of a newbie to any jazz that hasn't been mainstreamed. It was a coincidence that we had tickets to see his son Wynton Marsalis in Birmingham Friday night, but couldn't make it because my marathon is this weekend. Instead, we were able to see another Marsalis. I have to say it was my favorite performance that Ken has dragged me to so far. Amazing! While photos and videos weren't allowed in the restaurant, I found this video on You tube.
