This Tuesday October 12th the Park Street Jazz Jam will feature the great drummer Jim Rupp! We hope you can make it – it’ll be a really fun night. Jim will play the first set with Andy, Pete, and Erik at 8:30, jam session to follow – all musicians welcome and there’s never a cover charge.

Hello Mr. Rupp
Thank you for your dedication to the memory of Ralph Bowman.
I was a very dear friend of his and did not know until today that he passed.
Could you please tell me the date of his demise?
Sincerely Sad
