Ahhh! Dave Brubeck, I love it. Course Smooth Jazz is my absolute favorite music.

Take Five! ;)

WHAT? :shock:

You mean you don't like stuff by David Benoit, The Rippingtons, Ramsey Lewis, Larry Carlton, George Benson, Lee Ritenour? Man that is some of the greatest stuff out there. But, I don't like country music, old or new, so it's a good thing we all like different music. ;)

Out of respect for the artists I won't name names (the ones you mention are not included) but the sound is what I would call elevator jazz...fast food. I like all the artists you mention but what I listen to is more along the lines of Miles, Coltrane, Ornette Coleman....I also like some Acid Jazz and just about anything on the Black Jazz label...

The Rick site has a lot of nice folks on it even if you are not a Rickenbacker player....

Yes, it is a nice forum. The only concern I have is that once you posted a thread, you can't edit nor delete it after a few days. :shock:

It has a lot good information about Rickenbackers.

Hey, if Rickenbacker did not fire Semie, Mosrite guitars would have never existed. ;)
