| Jazz for aficionados Rok, without a doubt you certainly let your jazz speak for you that time; "Blue Trane" is the best cut ever. | |
| Jazz for aficionados Frogman, it was definitely jazz you posted, but it fits your and Wynton Marsalis's definition of jazz.I recall maybe 30 years ago, before Wynton made his first LP as an independent musician, and he had been a sideman with Blakey; it was suggested ... | |
