I finally had a chance to see Gregory Porter who sang with the Mid-Atlantic Jazz Orchestra under Paul Carr's direction. One of the finest performances I recently had an opportunity to witness. He sang a number of songs from his recent album "Be Good" encoring with "My Funny Valentine." Special Kudos to the rhythm section of Pianist Allyn Johnson, Bassist James King and drummer Nasar Abadey who anchored the terrific backing for Porter.
