Perish the thought!  It probably has, though - or perhaps not: once
upon a time I could enjoy Cannoball Adderley, but not anymore.  But I
might have developed more tolerance for vocals.  Besides, enjoying one
quite hot number does not mean I'd be able to listen to eight of them
in a row!  And I am almost sure there are some typical crooning period
ballads on that Vintage issue - something that makes me sick!
With very kind regards
