It’s strange how music can make you feel really great. It is, after all, just air being pushed around in a certain way. One of the most significant parts of music that makes you feel great is - the groove. Some people have it and some don’t. When music really grooves it inexplicably touches your soul.

I’ve had my share of bad days. I’ve had periods of depression. Music has always helped me get through it. Music can manipulate your emotions to such a degree that it can cure depression. I love all kinds of music, but for me, the best music is that which really grooves. Music can be OK, or even in some cases quite good, without it truly grooving – BUT, when music truly grooves it becomes great music.

A musician can play his/her instrument in perfect time and still not groove completely. Move one note slightly and suddenly, there it is – the groove.

Musicians who have the natural ability to just instantly groove when they start playing their instrument(s) have (in my opinion) an obligation to use that gift – for it is a divine gift. They have the ability to improve people’s quality of life.

Keep on groovin’ and help make the world a better place
