I likes me da way dis man thinks! *grin*

When facing the situation of adding a new (to me) guitarist to my little jazz combo in which I have to play the piano or organ mostly, one of the first things I find out is whether or not the guitarist can "gimmie the comp like Kenny" in a Blues. All downpick, all inside chords, mostly one per beat, all tritoned up, and all funky. If said guitarist can't do it, and there have been far too many of late who cannot, they usually receive a CD from me with a copy of Jimmy Smith's "The Sermon" on it and are sent on their merry way...
