As in so many other forms or styles of music, there are endless variations on any given central idea or theme. Generally speaking, each variation gains merit in the eyes, ears and/or hearts of some and seems to spawn it's own group of followers. Not every variation seems able to gain acceptance by all. Thank goodness for that, because this old world would be a dull place indeed if that were the case. Interpretations within our musical pursuits are as varied as the individuals who attempt to unlock the secrets of this endeavor.

As outrageous, improper, annoying, blasphemous, illegal, or cacophonic as they may be to some, I, for one, applaud the attempts of any and all who stride beyond the norm to reach for what lies outside the view of the many. I appreciate the pioneers.

just keep playin'
