This debut compilation highlights the skills of musician, composer, arranger and producer El Jaye Johnson.

On The EDJE... Live!
When El Jaye puts a band together to go on the road, he gets the cream of the crop. This set highlights the talents of the Port City All-Stars, a polished set of musicians whose abilities are more than stellar. Experience the energy and spontaneity of live performances by David Collins, El Jaye Johnson, and Tim Shuford. Capture the spirit as you become enveloped by the tenacity of musicans Andre' Bright, Tony Mallard, Mike Hanson, Avery Flynt, Roy Harper, Ed Kopp, and many others on this dynamic live set. Feel the emotion on the feature selection "El's Theme," which is a drummer/ percussionist extravaganza. Then rejoice as and melt as you listen to David Collin's rendition of the Sam Cooke classic "Change is Gonna Come." Smooth Jazz and R&B never sounded so good!
