Interestintg set of mentions, mikeydee; nice post.  One of the most interesting things on YouTube giving some insight into Gary Bartz, while talking about Miles.  Great player, Bartz; he sounds amazing on the clip behind the interview footage:http... 
Clyde Stubblefield RIP
I think you are exactly right, Slaw; something that came to mind and grappled with before responding to shadorne and I should have gone with my gut feeling.  Certainly no disrespect intended towards the thought behind your post and I hope that wha... 
Clyde Stubblefield RIP
Shadorne, it’s possible we may be saying the same thing depending on our definition of our choice of terminology, but I have to disagree with your definition of "in the pocket". I have never heard a musician use the terms "in the pocket" "in a dee...

Well, as I said previously, it is obvious (as it has been for a long time) that some of us live in different universes as concerns music and other matters; honest self-awareness, or lack thereof, of what is behind our respective motivations for sa...

Larry Coryell was a monster player.  RIP.  Thanks for that clip, Acman3.

I would be glad to answer you, O-10. Look, it’s obvious that you and I live in very different universes, both as concerns music and as concerns interaction on a forum like this; not to mention other ways that are probably best left alone. Just loo...

Don't know what happened to the post.  Agon gremlins I guess. This was it (one Goodman clip):New, old, current, classic ...... whatever.  Is it sincere and at a high artistic level?  Is it say something fresh?  Just a couple of things that came to...
