    Miles Beyond? The Mahavishnu version or Doves of Fire? Both will melt your stereo. [img]cool.gif[/img]

    For some great "DC" check out John Schofield's "Pick Hits Live" CD. Some really great stuff, with Gary Grainger on Bass.

    Take Care. F.S.

    "carlos has a wonderful tone and no chops, while mike has too man chops and awful tone"

    SO TRUE! I can't listen to Stern. It kills me. Carlos sounds the same to me, but I love the tone.

    I dug the way you made this original post. I enjoy hearing about "in the moment" reflections at clinics--the more the better! I hope to share the same after seeing Greg B this Thursday.

    As for the Spectrum/ Aja comparrison, what's up with that? Why would BC even go there? I don't think these recordings are even in the same "spectrum"--Fagen and Becker sure aren't fretting about how much time they spent in the studio to get it right. The record sales and lasting power of the project speaks for itself.

    As FUSE said, I see the BC/DC connection. Haven't thought too much about it before. But BC seems to not mention VC. There is no other drummer, save Gadd, that has crossed so much musical ground. Cats like BC are life TWilliams was...edgy, very opinionated, and confident (almost arrogant) personalities. They are critical and hand out few compliments, but surely BC respects and digs VC's portfolio of work...right?

    <font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">Just one quick question that was bugging me for some time: When an english speaking person refers to "horns", what does he mean ? Because we have instruments in germany called "horn", but i doubt that it has the same meaning as the english "horns". Is this perhaps a term refering to all brass instruments like trumpet, trombone, etc ?
