Jazz music community with review and forums
Trombonist Pat Hall was born in Flint, Michigan, in 1965. His upbringing was typical of its time and place - very Michael Moore Roger & Me-era working-class. Indeed, his father worked in the local GM plant. Neither parent was particularly musical, though Pat remembers his father being partial to Kraftwerk and Pink Floyd. "Thanks to the eight-track in his car," Pat says, "that music became imprinted on my brain."
Flint public schools were fairly progressive in the 1970s, due largely to the influence of local philanthropist Charles Stewart Mott. Pat was able to start playing music quite early, in the third grade. "I remember being brought into a room with all the band instruments spread out of big tables for us to play with and choose from," Pat says. "I picked trombone because two of my friends did. I don’t remember even trying anything else on that table."
