Los Gatos Jazz on the Plazz: A Few Thoughts on Mary Wilson

A limited number of tax-deductible $150 admission tickets are still available at the door for this evening's gala at the "La Estancia" estate, 18000 Overlook Rd.

She is a Grammy nominee and a member of The Rock & Roll Hall of Fame and she is a jazz singer.

She is a tireless advocate for cancer research and AIDS awareness and she is a jazz singer.

She is an actress, an author, a former U. S. Cultural Ambassador and she is a jazz singer… a damn good one.

Had Mary Wilson not helped found The Supremes, fate may well have taken her down the path which she now walks, the path of a jazz singer.

Tonight she will charm those of us at our annual gala fundraiser for Los Gatos Music & Arts, the nonprofit which produces the Jazz on the Plazz and Music in the Park concerts.

Wednesday evening evening she will be honored with our Jazz Legend Award. Honored for where she’s been and where’s she going. Honored for the hope she has given and the love she has shared.

She is an American icon, a classy dame and as good a friend as a song could ever wish for, she is Mary Wilson ...  jazz singer.

A limited number of tax-deductible $150 admission tickets are still available at the door for this evening's gala at the "La Estancia" estate, 18000 Overlook Rd. For more information, please go to jazzontheplazz.com
