Bob Couchenour's Blog
"Jamming is not for everyone. A Jam is a currently living active conversation in the language of musical notes and chords, ever changing and evolving, as the language becomes common and the individual musicians better versed in the language." BC
“...in my playing, taking all the skill and ability the Lord has allowed me to develop and then giving the best and offering it back to Him, I am entering into the realm of angels. My speech is not that of human reasoning but of the heavenly host moving in response and into battle with principalities and powers that would raise them selves in defiance of the Lord our God.” BC
