This picture was taken on March
9,1996 in the "green room" of the Wells Fargo Theatre after a
concert featuring Herb Jeffries. He is 84 years "vintage" in
this picture. The Wells Fargo Theatre is located on the grounds of the
Gene Autry Western Heritage Museum in Los Angeles, California and was
the sight where a "wannabe" crossed paths, by the grace of
Almighty God, with a "Living Legend". Herb and myself have
been "Spirit Brothers" ever since we got to meet each other
after the concert. Herb said to me that "a spirit brother is some
one who is even more special than a blood brother in that you don't get
a say so in choosing your blood brothers. You do have a choice in
choosing people that become a "Spirit Brother". These
individuals really touch your spirit when you come in contact with them
and a bond is created without saying a word and without even a touch
from one another. And when you really enjoy, as I do, watching some one
like Herb Jeffries do what he does best, then the statement he made to
me really does say it all. Those of us in attendance that night were
really into what Herb Jeffries was "layin' on us"! Through the
enthusiasm that we showed while watching Herb at his craft, the
adrenaline flow that was generated caused Herb and the rest of us to
reach new levels. If not but for just a moment, "The Spirit"
between us reached a common ground of understanding, appreciation, a
geniune love and respect for one another. In my heart and mind there was
a bond created of inspiration and mutual respect that I know will endure
through the ages as I recall that memoriable night when fate allowed
paths to cross between a legend like Herb Jeffries: "The Bronze
Buckaroo" and a "wannabe" like me... Dwayne Towns, |
