That sounds like a good plan, Jimmy. Here's hoping that the roads are safe for you and everyone else traveling over the next several days.

Re: Jimmy Ruffin — R.I.P.

It's really a shame that this fine r&b singer was ultimately defined by one major hit, "What Becomes of the Brokenhearted", and in the shadow of brother, David. He deserved a wider audience and opportunities. The UK embraced him very warmly in later years. http://chart.mygoldmusic...

Favorite Jazz Group Configuration

While most of us have enjoyed listening to many different formats/sizes of jazz "groups" over the years, from solo to large ensembles, here is a hypothetical question to ponder. If you only had one size "group" available to listen to, which would it be? What instrumentation? Why...
