Jazz for aficionados Hi O - Glad you did post about MJ. Nice not to be alone on that topic. Tina Brooks (had to look him up) - another said story, unfortunately.One good thing about getting older is a greater indifference about what other people think. | |

Long lost songs Hey there eddy...got you on the Vanessa Fenandez. You can read the Crazy Eddie story here (spelling is different). "His prices are so low they're insane!". Just thought you might have taken the name from there. A long lost electronics chain fo... | |
