| Glaring Omissions .Hey Charles...I don't dislike Lester Young, I just haven't heard any of his music....he's a glaring omission. I just might like him if I'd heard any of his music. I think the only time I ever heard any of his music was the little snippet that I h... | |

| Jazz Musician's Sonic Signature .Drubin, I see Elvin Jones in your list. Of the many great jazz drummers throughout history, I haven't listened close enough to any drummers to identify a signature. 99.9% of all of my jazz recordings include drums, but for the life of me, I canno... | |
| Jazz on Downton Abbey .Whoa...now THAT was totally unexpected! Thanks Dtc. | |
| Good Recommendations For Scat Singing Please .Fellas, I'm familiar with those who scat. I'm looking for suggestions of specific albums or songs by these artists where they actually scat. To go through Ella's & Torme's catalog to find examples of scatting would take forever. I'm hoping th... | |
