everyone remembers, when we were kids, we would tell other kids: " my dad makes more than your dad" or "my mom is smarter than your mom". Imagine Shane as a youth, bragging: "my mom can draw her rock!" or "my mom could shoot your mom's liver out!"

Just think of the possibilities . Well, i know now that pool is defenitely in his blood

Yeah I couldn't get the pic of Miles to work so I scrapped the idea but I am indeed a lover of jazz. I'm listening to kind of blue right now at work.

I did a sufficiency in jazz guitar in college so I spent a lot of time listening to Wes. I think we're related since I also have an affinity for thumbing and hate picks.

The whole family is winners

Excerpt from the Wikipedia web site.... plus more

When Van Boening was a mere year and a half old, he watched his grandfather play pool and took a liking to the multi-colored balls on the emerald green felt. His family has a strong pocket billiards background. His grandfather, Gary Bloomberg, was a trick-shot artist; his grandmother, Jeanne Bloomberg, a VNEA national champion; his mother, Timi Bloomberg, a BCA national champion; and his aunt, Gari Jo Bloomberg, a three-time VNEA national champion.

Seems like it runs in the family.Better watch out for his kids..

I'd say the HUGEST tone of any alto player, maybe outside of Earl Bostic (but that is apples to oranges). Good god, you gotta check out anything he ever did with Bill Evans....this should be required listening!

And while you're at it, check out Grant Green =)

Rep to the man with Mr. Adderley in his avatar!
