Tone Poems is an album recorded by David Grisman and Tony Rice about 20 years ago. On each tune, each man plays a different vintage instrument. The musicianship is top shelf and the fi is excellent. Some of you are going to say "Well, these guys aren't jazz musicians!". And my rejoinder will be: "Well, they are both A+ musicians on their instruments and the music is for the most part as improvisational as any more 'conventional' jazz recording". Granted, the repatoire is somewhat different, but so what. Enjoy. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DclUCnQn2pI Lack of skill dictates economy of style. - Joey Ramone |

I have that set. Jazz or not, it's a pleasure to listen to. |
