The First Annual Sherman Jazz Classic

For eight years I wanted to do a jazz concert to go along with our jazz museum in Sherman, and in 2018 we finally did the first one.  I wanted The North Texas One O’Clock Lab Band to play and to backup a great jazz artist.  I also wanted the director, Alan Baylock, and the band perform with someone they were excited to perform with, so I asked  Alan to help choose someone.  It was a long shot, but we decided to go with Doc Severinsen, who was 90 years old, but still sounded great.  Hopefully, Doc would agree and he did.  This was the closing tune of the concert. Doc and the band sounded great! The concert was on 4/14/2018 at Kidd-Key auditorium in Sherman, TX.
