[Dixielandjazz] Amazing Amazing Grace

[David M Richoux]

I have seen him playing live a few times, and on TV many times - quite  
amazing (and his brother's inventive rhythms are also a treat!) I  
almost had a chance to see him in a "Bass Clinic" but I had a  
conflicting gig...

Bela Fleck and the Flecktones don't get the all of the (much deserved,  
I think) recognition they should  in the jazz world because of their  
Bluegrass roots, but I see this group as a focus of many traditions in  
music that are all MKOM and very enjoyable!
