Marcella A. Hardin sits down with Ray Silkman he has been touted one of the best saxmen in the business. Regularly performing in sold out auditoriums and festivals in Chicago and across the Midwest. With annual appearances with The Greatest Of All Time, Muhammad Ali, and repeat performances before tens of thousands at Chicago's United Center, Rosemont Convention Center, and Poplar Creek, Ray Silkman is one of the most sought after and celebrated performers in the Midwest.

Ray has independently released five CDs. Heartbeat, which sold out in 18 short months, and SoundCheck, his current work that is nearly sold out as well, and is being played on stations across the country, as well as being featured on BET's Jazz Discoveries. The energy, the passion, and of course the sound of Ray Silkman's soul pouring through his saxophone is hypnotic to say the least. It is no surprise that Chicago Radio station V103 is quoted as saying" We have never seen a

reaction to a jazz song that we've played on V103 like the one that we got from Ray Silkman's So Saxual. Every time we play the song the phones light up". On Time TV wished to thank Mr. Silkman for allowing us to sit with him and share his story with us. Marcella stated " his performance is exciting to watch and he awesome to look at you must catch him live to feel his heat" .
