@Jim Williams
This one - in particular - really impressed me.
If you don't like this one any more than any of the other tracks found on the web, I'll accept that my tastes suck. :thumbsup:

That one is good.
People of good will, of course, may differ on preferences. Mine tend towards Bill Evans, Paul Desmond, Lester Young, etc. rather than the "Blue Note" style or the "14 minutes of musical onanism" school
I can appreciate most all styles but gravitate to some over others for reasons I do not care to analyze.
While growing up in NYC, I had plenty of chance to hear anything I wanted and formed some preferences.
This person's playing doesn't move me, but that doesn't imply that your tastes suck. Celebrate diversity! :teeth:

Shades of Gerry Mulligan & Chet Baker.
