Some of us don't have night jobs either. Oh man, I can relate.

Rather like "how many of you in the quartet?". Anyone else looking forward to the Paul desmond book? I only hope it does him justice.

...not by a long shot; but then again, what do you consider old? Old or young, you guys are fast. Before my browser can reload the page, there are multiple responses. Or maybe you don't have day jobs?

...what's a saxaphone? ....most newbies spell it this way (lately)! Yeah, I've been lurking enough to know. And, after spending too much of my life with a hunk of brass, 'pearl', pads and reed slung from my neck, to know better...hence my '(sic)'.

I could ask "which Al(exander) Haig do you prefer?", but I suspect most of you are too young to remember. Am I the only old guy here?

My first post. My big chance. Should I buy "Kind of Blue"? Uh, who is the greatest jazz musician? Do you guys like Kenny G the saxaphone (sic) player? Why did they call Charlie Parker "Bird"? Does Miles Davis play better than Louis Armstrong? And Maynard Ferguson player higher (and sometimes faster too), so he's better than both, right?

I like the Wardell Gray version I have on an old Crown LP (aside from the crummy sound quality and editing typical of Crown/Modern). I guess this is the one everyone else likes too. I have not heard the Art Tatum version, though I have heard lots of Art Tatum recordings (other songs).
