REGGIE HINES - LIVE YOUR LIFE

Two time Grammy Award winner and founder of Smooth Jazz, musician Najee has donated his own saxophone to renown Jazz artist Reggie Hines. As soon as Najee landed in JFK recently, from his tour in Europe, he learned via text, about the demise of saxophonic player Reggie Hines’ missing horns. Mr. Hines’, who has previously performed with Najee, two saxophones came up missing after a recent gig in Atlanta. This sour note quickly turned into a melody when Najee called and offered Hines his very own saxophone for replacement. One final piece was short in this perfect score; the instrument had to be picked up in Orlando where Najee resides. Chountelle Bullock, a member of his marketing staff, was contacted by Hines’ manager Clifton Camp of MarketingCamp, LLC, and she flew to Orlando and back with sax…the final score! Thanks Najee.
