As much as I am into recording quality, I can hear through bad recording quality with "Bird". When I was a child of maybe 7, there was a candy store a half block from our house, and between our house and the candy store, lived a young man who was ...

I can not think of a more consistent jazz musician than "Harold Land". The very greatest jazz musicians who ever lived cut a few notes I could live without, but Harold is consistently good.

If these were normal times, I would not be concerned when someone doesn't post for a few days, but these are not normal times and I am concerned. Even if you don't have anything to say, post anyway to let us know you're OK.
