"Jaime Valle: Musician With a Purpose"
Jazz News Magazine
Lyrically-gifted veteran guitarist/composer/band leader Jaime Valle has refused to allow his growing success of the last several years slow him down. No mold decorates Valle's frequent treks from Tutto Mare in UTC on Wednesdays to the U. S.

He chuckles when he says these words. Valle is a musician whose infectious good taste and well-acknowledged sense of humor on stage attract new admirers to his ever-expanding fan base.
"We have had full houses at the Grant Grill pretty much ongoing now for three or four years and these people come to hear my band smoke, see? This is serious business," he adds. "Saturday night crowds do not want wallpaper music. They want dynamite, nitroglycerine, the musical equivalent of the hydrogen bomb. Our fans in San Diego are the greatest anywhere. They love a good time. My ban
