Re: VINNIE - The thread about Colaiuta

I can't believe that this is still open for debate!!! What caught my eye was... ...and to cling to grains of truth which do not represent the whole picture. And then they are lost in a web of fallacies, rather than confronting what really bothers them. And they think it's everyone else who is brainw...

Re: Anika Nilles

As far as not getting the vaccine, whatever. Get it or not. But to wear not being vaccinated as a badge of honor when 67% of people in the world (5+Billion) have taken it in a pandemic that has killed an estimated 6 Million people (and very likely higher) isn't a particularly good look from my side...

Re: DAVE WECKL - The thread about Dave

I have that album on vinyl. It was imported from Japan. I'm constantly amazed at the number of albums that were recorded here in the U.S.A .that weren't released on a label here but I was able to get as imports...like almost all of the Michel Camilo albums from that era, Joe Cool, and the original S...

Re: DAVE WECKL - The thread about Dave

Man, always that same Latin Jazz fusion's music, well done sure, and boring in the same time, man, I'd love to choose a repertoire for DW, something out of his comfort zone. Rodge-- Probably true...but the vamp that can be generated for Weck to play over works best in the Latin stuff. The only othe...

Re: Quarantine Chatty!

Carlos -- That was extremely good. Loved the way that you kept the groove going even when you modulated through different time sigs and feels. The ending was a real pleasantly surprising change. Most people finish their solos off with "fireworks." You came to a nice "peaceful" en...
