Operation 365 2– Jefferson Jay – Covers – 95 “Maxwell’s Silver Hammer” by The Beatles

Operation 365 2 – Jefferson Jay – Originals – 95 “Part of the Plan” by Jefferson Jay

Beginning to wrap my mind around these the 24 tunes I wrote a once a few weeks ago. We even played a couple of them with The Jefferson Jay Band last night. What a fun Easter gig it was at Mother’s Saloon. We played well and my van almost it the whole seven blocks to the gig. I am very psyched about the Band right. Guessing it’s all “Part of the Plan.” I guess that’s what this song means. I’m enjoying learning about what my own songs mean. Slow and steady.

Trumpeting superstar Paul Ruiz loves the wings at Mother’s. He says it’s like being in Heaven. That’s my favorite part of playing there, his joy when encountering the wings. And I LOVE the playing part. It’s just you rarely get to see some THAT happy. Yesterday was huge fun. I am grateful.
