| Artists that use the same song structure... Completely agree with Tostados re bluegrass. The playing by some of those guys (and gals) can be fantastic sometimes, in an earthier way than other genres. Some of those bands swing their asses off.

| Jazz for aficionados My radio alarm went off just as this tune was starting. Scared me to death. Jazz 88.3 WBGO does it again. Donald Harrison and Dr. John; genius pairing:https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=1J3MWiToJ9cDidn't know about this record nor this band. Great stuf... | |

| Leonard Bernstain Rhapsody In Blue... He certainly was. Copland's musical influence can be heard loud and clear in many of Bernstein's works. As Tubegroover points out, Bernstein was many things, a bigger than life personality and American icon. Some of his works, especially West Side... | |
