George my only question is are you using the nylon stocking while it's still on the woman. If so, we are talking about a whole different class of disease.

Doc, I was trying to picture that in my mind, and swear to God, some really ludicrous scenes popped up. You have a wild imagination, Doc. LOL !!!

Obviously not as wild an imagination as you, as nothing of mine popped up... OMG do I need medication? Glad you are popping though GeorgeB. Only if I had your youthfulness!

I would also offer the Poo attack is on the beat and sounds more responsive. I use the Phwooooooooooo attack which is a bit softer and sounds as if just behind the beat.

The Poo will result in a soft phrasing. Would work very well in coloring ballads and soft classical runs.

my right eye suddenly went black

OMG... This is horrible! Let's turn the horrible into a triumph with the surgery on Monday. I am praying for complete recovery of your vision and that the anesthesia goes through risk free! Please do give updates!

Man does Olds make beautiful horns!

I'd get a kick out of anything Botti plays. He is marvelous and just seems to make it look so easy.

He is one of the best, accuracy and control of pitch he is a master at doing this. He really knows how to connect with an audience as well. I have seen him live and in person. Gave him one of the songs I wrote, "Midnight in Tuscany" which he graciously accepted but I have not heard it recorded yet.

I would rather choose the one with the prostate shrinking grape: Pino Slow.

This reminds me of the rendition Chris Botti recorded.

So I played the two versions back to back, and had to pause every 12 bars or so on Chris Botti's version as he played a slightly faster tempo. One thing stood out so much more than the other (except for Blue Mitchell smoking a cigarette), was Chris plays behind the beat in many of his phrasings. That does change to feel a bet between the two.

Yes, they are very different. Botti's is almost like "Kenny G" style. More pop I suppose.

I think two things about the Chris Botti performance makes this so, the use of strings and guitars in the mix, and the generous use of reverb.

Do the suspenders still fit ?

No answer yet. Keeping us in suspense for sure.

@Dr-GO
That happens to me after a shot or two of Jack.

Sounds to me like you know Jack!

I only know of Carling Black Label beer. It's not a valve oil, but if you consume enough when playing, you will be less concerned as to the action the valves.

Gotta steal this one.

Rest assured, 99.9% of jokes are stolen. IMHO
Well, they had to be original at some point, so let me adjust that figure.........”most” jokes are stolen.

I have yet to hear an "original joke." Get it? ... probably not.

???
Here’s an original joke for you-

ADAM: knock, knock
EVE: who's there?
ADAM: Who do you think?

Hiiiiiisssssssssssss!

@Dale-Proctor
You are quite the distinguished looking gentleman, Dale.

I would add to that... the handsomest one in the picture. Perhaps a prolonged movie career is in the making. I want his first autograph!

@BigDub I think it needs a trumpet player in the wood shed. Then it's done.
