  2. Now is not too late. Glad you liked this. His version of Poinciana was on one of the first Jazz CD's I bought back way back when.

  4. My Pleasure. Smooth later came to describe a style of music similar to jazz but without the improvisational aspect. I like smooth jazz though after a while it all sounds alike while the "smooth" that is Ahmad Jamal and Milt Jackson and so many others never seems to lose it's freshness.
