21. I certainly agree with what you say..but...like Coltrane's solo/ad-lib...
there has to be Something there to excite the brain.
Even the Sax Solo (second part) on FM (Steely Dan) is Wonderful despite being played over a simple E Major.
..And of course, the "The Crusaders" were masters at "Saying a lot with simple riffs" :)

I suppose my "Bitch" is WAY too many tunes (now-a-days) have decent words but seem to Water-Down every other part of the Performance.
I mean, why not try to make the Musicians happy AND the Public ??
...and what the hell happened to Solos ?

Yes..I dream..silly, foolish me...
