Thanks to Pjw, I filled that "West Coast" gap in my collection; it's on the way. Somebody mentioned "new jazz"; this is the first time I heard that album you submitted Rok, that's new jazz to me.

"Betty Bebop", what an appropriate name, I like her best when she's doing her "bebop" thing, instead of the standards.

Rok, you're not fooling me, you're just in love with Kathleen Battle.I know what you mean about Christmas music, that's why I don't object to the "classic, standard Christmas music" that can always be heard at our house. I want to always remember...
