We can go and post the links rather than the embedded clips, what do you guys think?

My phone won't play videos without shutting off, so I don't know what tunes have been posted so far.

A favorite of mine is Charles Mingus. His compositions are great examples of "organized chaos". In my opinion, he's the best composer since Ellington. He's also responsible for coming up with my screen name, though I think I should've used the original title of the piece, "If Charlie Parker Were a Gunslinger, There Would Be a Lot of Dead Copycats." I don't know if the board would've let me.

George Benson (without Carlos) ...
