@mahgister Chet should have never started singing. Wow he is a lousy vocalist.

@sns No doubt Monk was very cool, along with Wayne Shorter, Lee Morgan and Kenny Burrell. Coltrane too.  

Wow I need to fire up the TT and listen to my Jazz collection. 

@jasonbourne71  She is a blues artist from KC. Should also check out Larkin Poe.

@bgross That's the great thing about this hobby (for some an obsession) one mans garbage is another mans gold. When CB started singing was after he had his face smashed in for gambling debts (Mafia?). 

Regardless I am glad you think it's great. I put Bakers vocal chops right up there with Tiny Tim, Rosanne Barr and Clint Eastwood and Bruce Springsteen. 

@bgross Yes indeed, I agree.

if that were the case Joe Strummer & Mick Jones would be in right the mix of your "Tiny Tim" analogy lol
