Comment:

Breaking my "art-of-the-mix cherry" with a CD made for a very nice young lady as an introduction to jazz. Just a random mix of my favorites. Most inspired during my youth by my dad and grandfather.
Saw MJQ when I was eleven at the IU auditorium. Been hooked on Jazz ever since. If I could get ahold of a Cannonball Aderely tune called Dis' Here it would have taken up my first three spots just for emphasis.

Been checking this site out for quite some time and been introduced to TONS of new music. Thanks to everyone who has unknowingly contributed to my sleepless nights downloading randoms songs from the internet.

G.A.B labs, some of my very favorites. The Vibes are so great and who better to represent then Lionel and MJQ. Shane, I respect Miles for everything that he has done, but he can be a bit wild for me. Give me traditional Jazz any day.
