Toay the native Chicagoan picks his guitar strings in a way that shows, since then; he has grown as much musically as he has physically.
Curtis is on his way to stardom. He now headlines at some of Chicago''s most popular clubs, including Andy''s Jazz Club, Pops for Champagne, ETA theatre and The Jazz Showcase.
From time to time certain great ideas take hold of and move across the
landscape of our minds, planting seeds and leaving impressions. This is
something which we all are familiar with as individuals. We have also
seen the transformative power of an idea whose time has come sweep
through societies and cultures. Obvious examples relate to the various
movements for human dignity and empowerment which involved whole
societies, yet which have become symbolized in the life of an
individual. So, we have the civil rights movement in the United States
with Martin Luther King jr.; the satyawgratha movement for Indian
independence with Mahatma Ghandi; the anti apartheid movement in South
Africa symbolized by Nelson Mandela; the Velvet Revolution in
Czechoslovakia with Vaclav Havel; and countless others. The power of
these movements, if we are to believe the men and women who stood at
their centers, did not come merely from the strength of their numbers,
or the logic of their arguments, but from a deeper source. This short
book by Curtis Robinson speaks from that source.
This work is a testament to a timeless idea/experience which is gaining
in popular awareness. That idea/experience has been termed "flow" - as
in "go with the flow", or to be "in the flow". It is a wonderful way of
expressing the experience of being moved, directed, and inspired by a
current of the Higher Life. Throughout history this flow has been the
territory of mystics, poets, artists, and musicians, but has not been a
focus for the bulk of humanity who tend to deny their own creativity
and spirituality. Curtis, who is a recognized jazz musician, for years
has trained himself to be sensitive to the flow of musical ideas. Even
with his long experience, it came as a surprise to him a few months ago
when he found himself moving in a new direction. Without warning a
stream of stories, conversations, profound sayings, and poems were
continually welling up in his mind. Although he had written before,
always it had been music. This time it was words crying out to be set
on paper.
The material in this book is the result of one month of Curtis going
with the flow. It is offered knowing that what one can do, all can do.
May these words awaken you to your own inner voice, and move you to
step into the stream that flows to the highest good.
