| Jazz for aficionados The Fusion Lovers Doth Express Their Love Too Much, methinks. Cheers | |
| Jazz for aficionados O-10:I was amazed at how enthusiastic The Frogman was about Fusion. Could it be that he was a closet Fusioner all this time? Hmmmmmm.One never knows............ Do one?Cheers | |
| Jazz for aficionados Don Cherry:All three were great. Loved the Trumpet playing on 'Brown Rice'. A guy on stage talking about Monk. If he did that today, I wonder if anyone would even know of Monk.Nice clips. Cheers | |
