Well, being an old drummer myself, I have to say that he's right, I have been in a few local jam sessions and younger drummers being use to play rock and such don't even have a pair of brushes in their bags, never mind know how to use them. Than doesn't mean that there are some out there that do know though.

Cheers

'cubanpete'...

This light, but briskly swinging jazz number, with its sweetly melodic trumpet performance, would be great to listen to, anytime, anywhere, from early morning wake-up time, to good-night and go-to-sleep time. It's like taking a vitamin that always peps you up, makes you feel good, and keeps the sun shining in your heart and soul.

Please accept my solitary applause!

As always your use of BiaB is very, very high bar.

Great swing!

We love many music genre but seem to always favor a swing or shuffle -- might those years way back when I played some walking bass smile

Great mix .. everybody has their spot on that stage.

Excellent!
