Was on YouTube (searching for the documentary I still haven’t finished) when I arrived at a link to my relative Neal Creque, jazz performer. Here’s what the wikipedia article on Neal Creque has to say:

Neal Creque (1940-2000) whose real name is Earl Neal Creque was an American jazz composer, born April 13, 1940 and originally from the Virgin Islands; he was based in the Cleveland area up until his death. ^[1]

He also composed music with Mongo Santamaria including the grammy nominated song Sofrito which was sampled by Jennifer Lopez on the album J.Lo.

He was a sought after session musician and his credits include Stanley Turrentine, Theresa Brewer, Leon Thomas, Grant Green, Harold Ousley, Bernard Purdie, and Eddie “Cleanhead” Vinson.

I met him once when I was little, according to my mother, but unfortunately I don’t remember.  I really enjoy his music though, it has this funk, jazz and latin fusion that I’m really digging.  Here’s the video/song I was listening to on YouTube!
