Dave McMurray is a jazz saxophone artist and an entertaining performer. His work with the band Was (Not Was) during the 1980s showcased is work on a national stage. In 2021 he released Grateful Deadication, produced by Don Was, on Blue Note Records and once again found himself in the national spotlight. My favorite place to catch Dave is the Dirty Dog Jazz Cafe in Grosse Pointe Farms, Michigan. I consider Dave to be a great jazz musician and I am proud to be his friend.
