We stopped into Rossi's after the cruise to hear your band. You guys were great. I especially enjoyed your arrangement of Lionel Ritchie's Hello.
We're sorry you were unable to join us, but truly enjoyed the music. Thank you for inviting us.

Long time La Crosse JazzFest fan. Had never heard of Ginger Commodore (singer with Rick Carlson Trio) but wow! what a voice. Hope the fest can continue to bring such undiscovered treasures.

Hello Ginger,

I was blessed to hear you sing and see you perform at the Jazz Festival last Sunday, Aug. 5 in LaCrosse. WOW! WHAT A TREAT FOR ME!! I enjoyed hearing you so very much. Your presence, liquidity of your voice, dynamics, texture, overall style were absolutely enthralling to hear. Thank you for all you gave. Thanks, too, for the support of your husband in the work he does with you and in your back up ensemble. He told me the names of the clubs in which you perform in Minneapolis and when I can get to the city again, I will be sure to be at one or more of those clubs.

I wish I could be at the Tribute to Nancy Wilson concert, because I know it will be a fabulous event! Also, congratulations on 30 years of marriage! You look too young to have been married 30 years! Good genes (singing too!). When I was with the "Sounds", you led the Sopranos! I am hoping to get to Mpls. in February. See you then!

Met your husband at the party for the jazz festival at John Laurent's house. He gave me the cd and I fell in love with the sound. It is my pleasure to extend an invite to you and your band to play at the 1st anual Shades of Diversity VIP Dinner & Fashion Show. I look forward to meeting you and listening to your beautiful voice on June 15, 2007. Good luck with the cd. Great work.

The lovely, Mrs. Commodore! I had never been to the site, but I thought I'd give my "other" mama some love. Thank you for all your support in the past. The past four years at De, you were always a constant presence and were always there to give me constructive criticism, which was always appreciated. Thank you for everything and keep up all of the good work! You are loved!

In town on business for the first time to Minneapolis. Saw you at the Dakota club, what a treat! The "flute" solo absolutly floored me!!!! Can't wait for your next album to be relised, and I will be getting your Christmas CD as soon as I get back. Best of luck to your daugher at school. Hope I didn't holler too much from the balcony, but you and Bobby just brought it out in me!!! Looking for the next chance to see you live!

Ginger,

On a whim, I brought my parents to the Dakota Jazz Club on Saturday. We had the pleasure of seeing you and your band play. Your rendition of Unchained Melody brought me to tears. As it happens, it’s also my parents’ wedding song, so they were in tears too. Has this song been recorded on a CD I can buy? I’d love to send it to my parents as a gift.

I look forward to seeing you perform again and again. You are an amazing singer. Amazing’s not the word, but I can’t think of another that would do your voice justice.

Sincerely,

Julie

Hello Ginger
Your site is awsome, and I look forward to seeing you and Bobby perform, when I am not playing with my group. I also hope to get the opportunity to sit in and play with your group sometime in the future. Please continue to enchant us with your beautiful voice.

Peace, Love & Respect
