One man's meat, you know...  I am a staunch believer in THE gospel: "It
don't mean a thing if it ain't got that swing," and also that modern as
applied to art jaus has two letters too many.

Not questioning that - but that was not what the article mentioned.

I don't.  But Wynton and daddy Ellis are not the same as Delfayo or
Branford.  And even Wynton often plays traditional as if it were something
else.  And neither Wynton nor Ellis were mentioned.  As to the recording
with Clapton - de gustibus non disputandum est.  I really don't mind if YOU
listen to it repeadedly, as long as you don't make me do so - I simply
prefer my music "Strictly Instrumental."
