“I make instruments from found objects and common objects, and I search for the sounds that are hidden in them and release them into the world.” Jay Kreimer
Clothesline Blues How do your hear your washing line, the sounds that evolve with every score that is hung on those staff lines, small to medium, to large, noting treble, bass, then picking up the pace, as sheets sit beside jeans, it could be four-four, or even more, are blue clothes g or e, are orange clothes f, and what of grey, there's no limit to the improv as feet tap and pegs click, could be Gillespie, could be Coltrane, I love this washing jazz, I love these clothesline blues.

Since my granddaughter is playing the saxophone she discovered jazz and so from there, blues and it’s opened up a whole new world to her.

How about a clothesline blues song to accompany your “Clothesline Blues”?
