Onto page 6 already.
I'm gone for a week and I have a mountain to climb to catch up.
Mat - Charlie Haden - 7
Mike - Marty Paich - 8
Steve - Art Blakey - 9(It might seem odd for me but i really like his groups)
Gord - Oliver Nelson - I reserve judgement till I hear it again)
Mike Ralph Sutton - 9 (I'm a fan)
Mike - Lonette McKee - 6.5 (not in my top list)
Escher - Red Allen - 10 (Red can do no wrong for me)
Gord - Anthony Perkins - 5 (Not in my top list)
Mat - Kuba Badach - 5(Sorry Mat, not for me)
Mike - G Shearing - 5 (I love the guy but could this be rated as Jazz?)
Steve - Wayne Shorter - 3 (Shudder)
Escher - Dave mcKennon - 4.5 (wouldn't make my top 20)
Mike - Nat Gonella - 9 (I've always rated him for entertainment - OK he takes off Louis but he's good at it)
Mike - Dutch Swing - 7 I rate them but this is below par)
Mike - Buddy Rich - 7.5 (One of my top rated drummers but this isn't the best swing track I've heard by him)
Gord - Lee Morgan - 8.5 (I've decided that I like Lee Morgan after being dubious for some time)
Steve - Cannonball - 8.5 (He's getting well up in my regard)
Mike - Woody Herman - 6 (One of my top swing outfits but this lets him down a bit)
Escher - Pee Wee - 9 (How I love that totured clarinet)
Gord - sonny Clark - 8 (IT gets the mark for the trumpet solo by Donald Byrd)
Steve - miles Davis - 9 (all for the Miles solo, Coltrane?, well you all know my feelings for him - yuck)
Cheers John
hope to catch up tomorrow
