OK, so  you like Dick Morrissey and Sonny Rollins, and even Chico Freeman.
But, as if tht were not bad enough, you also consume NON-ALCOHOLIC
beverages, and dare to call them "drink!"
The Flinstones theme has become a traditional jazz standard.  "Old Cowhand"
much less so, but one hears it at trad jazz shows from time to time.
Cheers
