Statement of Purpose & Acknowledgement:

  "The god given gift to create music that can inspire people is not given to you to

  do as you see fit.  It is not given to you just for your exclusive benefit.

 It was given to you to use it to inspire those who would benefit by it, 

 either during or after your lifetime...the same as you would be inspired

 by those before you.

 Don't be intimidated by circumstance or by those who would want to

 hold you back from developing your gift.

 Above all; don't let them bury your music with you the day you take

 your last breath on this earth. 

 For sure...if you let it happen...it would be the greatest disservice you

 would ever make in your life and a "slap in the face" to God himself.

  ...Because he could've given your talent to someone else more

 deserving of it.

 Sam (Blueman) Kelly*Blues pianist 1953 on the corner of Taylor St.

and Paulina Ave. Chicago, IL.  

   ________________________________________________  *  _____________________________________________

  These were the spoken words of inspiration that has stayed with me for over the fifty 

  year period since I first encountered them.    I was only eight years old at the time and 

  obviously, for me to have comprehended the full scope of this kind of "testamonial to my

  future; seemed a little over my head.   I was more interested and focused on Sams

  lightening speed of his hands at the piano and the endless chorus of different sounds

  he could make coming out of that old upright player piano.

  Even long after "Blueman" was gone, those words were indelibly written down in my head

  almost word for word. Lucky for me that day my dad was with me and was so inspired

  by them himself that he never let me forget it...ever!   

   This website was created with people like "Blueman Sam" in mind as well as all of the

  other people of positive influence that I've encountered throughout my 64 years

  of living life's history.

  It is my desire to feature on this website, the accomplishments of other creative

 musicians of influence whose music tracks will be heard and directly purchased off this

 site.

 This will be limited to "original instrumental "music compositions of Jazz,World Fusion,

 Latin Jazz,Inspirational,R&B,Pop Ballad,Classical and semi-classical type works.   

  The intended purpose is not just to give the creative musician a chance to be heard

  but also a chance to be "SUPPORTED".

  Support is a very necessary and vital component of a musicians art form if its going

  to be able to survive.     People can listen to a musician perform online for free or

  on a street corner festival or in a restaurant while dining or in private during a solo

  recital without much thought given to the fact that unless their support is obtained

  his music and others like him may someday no longer be heard no matter how well

  appreciated.  

  It's primarily for this reason why I felt it necessary to enclose this "Statement of

 Purpose of Intent" and to acknowledge the efforts of those supporters who believed in

 the same type of envisions that I have by donating their time,their service,their advice

 financial resources in helping to start this site (since 2004) and to expand,improve and

 to help keep it open.

 Our best effort here at Talent Aid Promotions Entertainment is to continue to make

 available,full length CD tracks that are available without cost for those of the general

 public that would enjoy listening to them,  as well as each tracks download ability

 for each guest listeners files.

 We will however, continue to encourage each "guest listeners" financial support in keeping

  this opportunity open to all without cost or obligation.

  All donations to this site are accepted as "private gift contributions" but are not tax

 deductible.      If you would like more detailed information regarding "private gift
