It would be nice if these 'monsters of jazz' weren't stuck in the 1960s. This stuff is so dry and boring I can't believe it. It is designed for performers, not for audiences. Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaawnnnn!
I forgot add, EVERYONE here are monster players. It seems all these other awesome musicians get forgotten for the horn player, but that's what being a rhythm player in a jazz combo is about. :P
Yep, quoting is one of the most fun parts of soloing. This is a very good recording, we are playing this tune in our combo. I am almost done transcribing it. I've even gotten some of the solo licks.
And yes, Rupert is one cool cat, and a monster player along with that.
Mr. Rupert is awesome to listen to both on the radio and in jams.
Great playing boys!

Artistically jazz is thriving, commercially it is dead. We play for our selfs now.

A boring jazz chart, made even more boring by a great technical guy with a terrible musical ability.
