Gotcha. I have my eye on a really nice tenor sax player -in Cuba right
now. We've talked about a duo CD.
I love that one with Bill Frisell and Joe Lovano & Paul Motian.
I guess my ideal is the way Frisell can get into and out of a loop so
easily (and thus, get through a set of changes). It never sounds like
it's 'looping for looping's sake'. It's always in the service of the
musical idea first.
