I'm a blues guy 1st but enjoys smooth jazz. I went to a small quaint Jazz set at The Old San Juan, I think it was or is on the 1st wednesdays of the month. I saw a guy name Jeffery Smith... I thought oh this is going to be boring.... it was very good.

And next month I will be back, for a Jazz Violinist named Michael Ward... I've seen him once or twice before... its been awhile back. But he was entertaining

While I love Animal and thought the Buddy Rich segment was funny, it just didn't grovve me.

I listened to the other links, but could not listen to any to conclusion.

I guess I just missed Jazz in musical appreciation class.

I have to HAVE TO include SV and his brother in my Texas Blues collection, if Stevie wasnt perfection, then I don't understand why.

Coltrane's Love Supreme and Miles Some Kind of Blue are definitely included in my desert island selection. I miss him. It sucks living in this Kenny G world !
