Alexatpos, I don't mind at all, and I appreciate your comments; I always appreciate honest and well thought out discourse. However, in my opinion there is a world of difference between saying what you said about liking and not liking some art (whi...

Mapman, no need to qualify your comments, they are well thought out and mostly true. But, it must be remembered that at some point the Standards of an era are supplanted by those of a new era; a new era with a new crop of players with different se...

Rok, now that O-10 has weighed in and, as you like to say, restored order, I feel better about moving forward. So, the discussion will be (wether you like it or not) about more than just "fusion"; whatever that is. Further, it should be pointed ou...

****I never said the public knows best, I said, they decide.****Global warming today; climate change tomorrow.Rok, you have a lot to learn about post- Blue Note era music. I am tempted to think that you just don't want to. If you do, you will simp...

1. Who said that? As I said to O-10, the discussion was supposed to be about the 70s.2. Get your facts straight. Those guys never played in "pop" bands.3. Body of work? What about it? Those guys are extremely well recorded and have significant dis...
