i can see why some don't dig his playing. i'm not a fan of it feel wise. i get where he's coming from. i just don't dig the rigidness. the solo stuff is just not fun for me. phrasings all over the place. with the band he sounds very good. there was a thing on DIME of a michel camilo and dafnis playi...

Cheer up huh? Didn't know things were going bad. Contrast is fun. Gets boring when everything is coming up roses all the time. gotta take the good with the bad. Fuels the fire. Anyone gotta a match

Kurt's doctor must've put him on the GOOD drugs. bring the insults. what ever. i'm a pessimistic at heart. you see the donut i see the hole in the middle of the donut. i know your just dishing out the usual HOD trash. i love sarcasm and it's cynical overtones. as life goes on you need to look at th...
