This was the original Seminole Heights blog with commentary about life in and around the urban neighborhood of Seminole Heights in Tampa, Florida. Musings about other topics as my mood permits. The blog is essentially inactive since I moved to Lutz. Go to The Official Unofficial Seminole Heights Blog - www.seminoleheightsblog.com for active content.
Vic Hall, Seminole Heights resident and host of USF Radio (897.) "Sound of Jazz," died Monday at age 81. The Tribune has an article about him.
Thanks to anonymous, "WUSF 89.7's Bob Seymour talked about Vic on the radio yesterday. "

I am greatly saddened by the news of Vic Hall's death. We will seldom, if ever again, benefit from the contribution of such a passionate and knowledgeable jazz man. Jazzmen are not only those who play, but those who, like Vic, bring the music to the people so they can be exposed to, and learn about this fantastic music. As a lifelong musician I wish to acknowledge Vic for his monumental contribution, his passion for and commitment to this great music.
