While I'll never be a jazz aficionado I know what I like.
Dave Brubeck died today and he will be sorely missed.

Today would have been his 93d birthday. We will miss him.

Paul Desmond was my hero (besides the bird) when I was still playing the Alto Sax.

R.I.P.......All the greats,sadly now reaching end of their era's. I do wonder if todays Music makers will ever have the staying power of our days...

To be honest today they all sound so similar, but maybe it is me 'showing my age and becoming more Grannyfied' :):)
