Learsfool, I want you to know that I respect your comments as a classical musician. There was an event that made me think about classical music and high end equipment.When I went to sell my son's sax, the music store owner told me he would pay a l...

Chazro, one musician I knew did not practice. Yes you misunderstood me. Others who have been following this thread should have gotten a better understanding.

Frogman, believe it or not, I agree with you on all counts, that's why I'm going to return this subject back where it belongs. Do you remember "Johnny Smith", who put out an album titled "Moonlight In Vermont". I was listening to that late last ni...

0nhwy61, maybe that would explain why Guatam Chatterjee is such a good jazz player. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WtYwiSiGRMsThat chick swings, and now I know why. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-WvQ7BMws1MEnjoy the music.

Rok, although I'm a big Bobby Hutcherson, and Harold Land fan, I didn't like the "Timeless" I found; however, I did find "Delilah" by the Bobby Hutcherson quartet. This music is absolutely amazing. It's current, that's what makes it so amazing. Wh...

Rok, I've been listening to a CD that I don't even know how it got into my collection, but I like it. Nowhere do I even remember purchasing "Mardra & Reggie Thomas"; but now, her soothing vocals take me places, and even her selection of songs ...
