phil Pua/Philip Lee&Phil

Phil "Mr. Jazz" Carroll was most certainly tapping his toes and swingin' with all of us at AJPXX! A special thanks for the many patrons who made reservations for AJPXXI! You are proof of our success! As Lee 'takes a bow' and retires to the 'sidelines', Philip and the next generation of Carrolls will take the reins. We wish to thank this year's participants for their incredible show of support for this transition.

We filled the very spacious Grand Ballroom of the Westin Atlanta North at Perimeter this year and enjoyed the very finest in traditional jazz. A special thanks to those who live in the Atlanta area and joined us this year. Our party continues to be widely talked about by both musicians and fans all over the country. We have had patrons from 40 US states and nine countries and the list continues to grow. Once again, Phil has assembled for your listening and dancing pleasure the very best combos of traditional jazz you have ever heard.

Each year we have many "first timers", who see the enthusiasm of those receiving their 5 and 10-year pins for those who have been attending for 5 or 10 years. We anticipate with the experience, they will become "regulars" too. Come to AJP! XXI and see what all the excitement is about! The many who have attended our Jazz Parties over the years have commented to us that AJP! is their favorite. The combos Phil put together were winners, and without a doubt, with Sir John Cocuzzi's guidance, Philip will continue the tradition well.

We welcomed 20 world class musicians, all are favorites of the Atlanta Jazz Party!, including a second visit from the lovely Nicki Parrott on Bass and vocals. As is customary the musicians played six sets of traditional jazz on Friday, six sets on Saturday nights from 7:30 to Midnight, and five sets on Saturday afternoon from 1:00-5:00pm and Sunday from 11:00 to 3:00pm. The Patrons get all these sessions plus the Saturday morning musical brunch.. which is always very popular. In each session every player is featured, with a few exceptions as Philip caters to these busy musicians! The sets are varied and songs are rarely repeated. The sessions are in the casual, cabaret setting of the Grand Ballroom, with a cash bar right outside the ballroom. The music is always in the tradition of Chicago/New York BG Quartet, West Coast, New Orleans jazz bands and combos. As usual our party is a clean air Jazz Party.. with a near by smoking area.

Thank you for supporting CLASSIC LIVE JAZZ at the ATLANTA JAZZ PARTY!

***Please understand, as in the past, table assignments are made in the order we receive your reservation, BUT there is no bad seat in the grand ballroom. Still no credit cards, though the next generation is looking to remedy this situation!

comments from our fans!
