I'm not sure it was ever said that the SGB clip was "OKOM". I enjoyed
it all, but I knew some on this list wouldn't.

It's just a taste thing. Maybe it's what you're used to listening to.
I'm pretty much happy if I can hear a melody. Others can handle
more obscure stuff.

I've just got the Marsalis / Clapton CD and there are some interesting
rhythms on some of the tracks that you would probably scream at.
When they shift the tempo of Just a Closer Walk there is a drum
beat based on a N.O. marching rhythm, but there's a lot more going on.

At least they keep the beat going though :-)

Regards

Andy Ling
