Boppin' to the blues

By now the world should know that Air Jamaica Jazz and Blues 2005 surpassed the expectations of its organisers, Turn Key Productions. The event was a mammoth success. Outside of the excellent
performances and fantastic vibes, Air Jamaica Jazz and Blues lent itself to some serious networking. Here we showcase some of the socialites who partied and mingled during the jazz and blues festival.
