I'm an electric bassist, amongst other things. I love good music, no matter what the genre, though I listen mainly to music that has a strong improv component, and I favor instrumental music. Love world music, too.

My all-time favorite band is Weather Report, all periods. My favorite musician of all time is John Coltrane, without a doubt. I love Miles, Holdsworth, McLaughlin, Jaco.....Monk, Parker, Mingus......tons and tons of artists, in fact. I don't listen to much Country or folk, or straight blues (though once in a while I spin something....) and not much in the way of Indie or the current Flavor of the Pop Month. But I don't actively avoid much of it.

I've been listening to, and playing, jazz and jazz-related music since age 13, back in......1979. I even had a 9 month period of Jazz Snobbism, complete with Upright-Only Attitude, in my early 20's. >> Yikes ...one recovers from that???

There ya go. Howdy!

Hey WOE, welcome among us...

I think you're the first PE member to join us , outside Dick (DJHaitch) and moi-même (as Trane)... and to a lesser extent Martin (alucard)

my music collection increased tenfolds when I switched from drug-addicted musicians to crazy ones....

Welcome to the site. The musician whom you mentioned is splendid. They are all favorites for me. I enrolled in Prog Ears, but there is always me here now. Please always enjoy JMA.

Great to see you here
