| Jazz for aficionados Blues can be instrumental only, but singing dominates the form.I used to know a Berklee professor and we had this same discussion back in the 90s. He explained that blues is a vocal musical form with a lot of call and answer, and that instrument... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Thanks Alex. You nailed the "best in a club" aspect. I like his tone on 1 & 2. Fun tracks, and he knew how to chicken pick. Tended to overdo the lick repetitions on this one (which I didn't hear in his later stuff), and I had to fast forwa... | |

| Jazz for aficionados Thanks for these fantastic Dexter cuts. Their different flavors played back-to-back really show his mastery. While listening and reading, I became curious (yeah, I know, after all these years). How did it become the convention to list jazz sid... | |
| New Audio Technica ART9XA Up and Running..... avanti, your glowing praise has piqued my hopes for a wonderful experience, but it's likely I'll receive the cart at least a week before I get the tonearm back.
