Yes, I'm a big fan of jazz. I listen to alot of bop and hard bop - Parker, Gillespie, Fats Navarro, Kinny Dorham, early Lee Morgan. Favorite jazz singers - Billie Holiday, Anita O'Day, and my favorite lovemaking CD - "My Funny Valentine:Chet Baker Sings For lovers." I also listen to John Coltrane in his various stages of development. Among the new crop of musicians? Joe Lovano is very good - haven't kept up with the latest performers, though. Always open to recommendations.Chanteyranger
