| Jazz for aficionados Hampton Hawes music was like a breath of fresh air; when I say that, I mean no stereotypical cliches. A ten year prison sentence for a person who's on a self destruct mission, doesn't seem like a right bright thing to do by the judge, but that's ... | |

| Jazz for aficionados I saw "Ain't Misbehavin'" in St. Louis with a local cast; it was fantastic, the different cast was very energetic, and I enjoyed their performance to the max.This original cast is one that can never be duplicated; it's the one all others will be c... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Well Frogman, I'm glad you could squeeze in.That's one of the best, if not the best "hard bop" record in my collection.Since you have indicated that you are definitely a "connoisseur" of that genre, I'll see what else I can find.Enjoy the music. | |

| Jazz for aficionados Frogman Junior, he didn't go to record, he went to perform at Benson's night club. When you learn how to use your computer, you'll be able to find facts like that. | |
| Jazz for aficionados Frogman, you could re-write history, just like you're re-writing Grant Green; but you can not erase those ugly things called FACTS.Enjoy the music. | |

| Jazz for aficionados "As Rok put it" is Rok no longer able to post for himself?Frogman you were 100% wrong about that long running Grant Green saga, and there is no way I'm going to take the time to read your usual diatribe that says nothing, so you get over that.Enjo... | |
| Jazz for aficionados I was listening to Sonny Clark and Grant Green playing "Airgin", this is one of Grants favorite tunes; he played that for himself. I say that because before he went to Blue Note, I saw him at a club he went to informally, and played his guitar whe... | |

| Jazz for aficionados Rok, I don't think it was as much an outrage as the Grant Green outrage; not only was he denied what was due him for producing the music, I was denied the pleasure of having those records in my collection, I was denied the pleasure of listening to... | |
