[Dixielandjazz] Hypothetical Question

[Phil Wilking]

And then there is the drummer who wants to play everything so fast a melody 
player can't execute intricate passages cleanly, nor could you hear them 
even if he did play them cleanly.

And the one who can't keep strict tempo but continually speeds up (usually 
the same one as above).

Phil Wilking

Those who would exchange freedom for
security deserve neither freedom nor security.
