| Jazz for aficionados O-10, no need for con-fusion; while a marriage of any two styles can be called a fusion, its probably wise to keep the term to mean jazz-rock fusion which is as most understand it. Frogman, I'm now confused more than ever? We can skip what Rok sai... | |
| Jazz for aficionados What's the matter Rok, the cat's got your tongue? Don't come back until you can explain that expression, I never understood it.Enjoy the music. | |
| Jazz for aficionados Frogman, While your first post fits the definition of jazz, Michael Brecker does not fit the definition of fusion, even by your own definition which was rock and jazz.Enjoy the music. | |

| Jazz for aficionados Chazro, I Went back over the postings to see if you ever posted anything unrelated to your love affair with Rok, and I was pleasantly surprised to see that you made some worth while contributions. "Birds got to fly, fish got to swim"; by now, ever... | |
