| Are you familiar with this guitar virtuoso The question is, will he grow into an artist? For those whose gifts enable them to acquire superior technique early on, it can be very challenging. | |
| Jazz for aficionados Revisiting Pharoah Sander's "Welcome to Love". If anything qualifies for the term "rapturous", this does. When I was young, I was drawn to atonality. This has changed significantly with age. I can't handle the abrasive Pharaoh at this point but th... | |
| Jazz for aficionados I've just skimmed through these -- at first listen, I like them a lot. Will explore in depth. Cool discovery! | |

| Jazz for aficionados @curiousjim I originally bought it due to the Penguin Guide’s favorable rating. They are pretty persnickety. I haven’t come across any other all-acoustic sessions where he was the leader but then I can't say I've really done an exhaustive searc... | |
