Since the passing of Grover Washington, Jr. in 1999, Jason Miles has been dedicated to celebrating and perpetuating his legacy for future generations. In addition to conceiving, producing and arranging two very successful all-star contemporary jazz 2 Grover With Love recordings, Miles - who did the synth programming on the saxophone legend’s 1987 date Strawberry Moon – paid tribute to Washington in an even more intimate way: by producing and executive producing Grover Live, a 2010 issue of a live concert Washington performed at the Paramount Center for the Arts in Peekskill, New York in 1997. Miles’ tireless work in bringing this recording to the public—thereby introducing the power of Washington’s music to a new generation of contemporary jazz listeners—is reflective of his commitment to keeping the great music of the past alive while keeping his eye on and exploring exciting future possibilities.
