We're at Twin City Music in Providence, where a youngster has just come inside for a drum lesson with Bob's son. " Lloyd called me one day," he continued, "and asked if I'd like to assist him in writing a book on Rhode. Island jazz musicians. "Sure, why not, I told him. That was seven years ago. I became the detective. Lloyd had the basic idea to write the book. I never would have thought of it." " I couldn't have selected a better person," said Lloyd jumping in. " Bob's a natural historian, and he's been a musician for so long. " Bob's played almost 50 years, and nobody knows the jazz scene better than him. Besides that, he's a pretty good guy and easy to get along with. It was a natural get-together. He has worked with all the musicians and has an understanding of the whole jazz scene." The two first met as co-authors-to-be over dinner at Bob's house. From then on, the main hubbub of conference acti vity over the book took place inside Bob's music empori um. They applied for and received a grant from the Rhode Island Council On The Arts. They were encouraged, too, by Al Kleiberg of the Rhode Island Historical Society. " Rhode Island has always been great for producing jazz players, but unfortunately, they've been swept under the carpet by history and time," Bob said. " Lloyd thought it was time to bring these people to the surface so others will know who they are and what they've done." Lloyd felt the need to " point out the accomplishments of the many great Rhode Island jazz players and to keep ali ve the names of as many jazz and violi nist, sent in his picture, The book's guardian angel, they going through the book, reminiscing, players as we could, even the ones which is in the book.

What are you waiting for? *This APR is a reduced rate and is good through May 31, 1993, The APR for Lines of Credit using the usual variable rate formula would be 85%.

A Member of Fleet Financial Group We're here to make a difference:-

A Fleet Line is offered with an ini tial term of five years . However, with a continued good credit standing, you may be granted a second and third draw period of five years. During the term, you can repay interest only. Principal payments in any amount can be made at any time. The Annual Percentage Rate (APR) may vary and is usually calculated by adding 2.0% to the highest Prime Lending Rate published in The Wall Street Journal at the beginning of each month. Based on the Prime Rate of 6.5% in effect on May 19, 1992, your init ial APR would usually be 8.5%. For this pro motion, however, the APR will be fixed at 6.5% through May 31 , 1993. BeginningJune I, 1993 the APR will vary monthly in accordance with the regular formula . The max imum APR that can apply to yo ur account is 21 %. There is a $50 .00 annual membership fee. The fixed rate Equiloan will have an initial simple annual interest rate of 6.5% for the 6rst year. For 1he remainder of 1he loan term, the simple an nual interest ra te will be the rate which would usually have been charged when the loan was made . This rate is cu rrently 11 .5%. For example, for a 10 year, $25 ,000 loan , the APR wou ld be 10.384% . You would make 12 payments of $284.10 {based upon the 6.5% simple annu al interest rate) followed by 108 payments of $345 .51 (based upon a simple annual interest rate of 11 .5%). Hazard insurance is also required for bot h Fleet Lines and Equ iloans.
