Being a Saxophone player I like Jazz, just none of that free form crap, ie Miles Davis.

Count Basie, Buddy Rich, Maynard Fergusson, Joe Sample, The Crusaiders, Herbie Hancock and Mann, etc Played in jazz band in college with Herbie Mann's daughter.

Not too fond of bleeding heart "ballads". There are some good ones here and there though. I've got the music in me, Thelma Houston. Fever, Ella Fizgerald or Peggy Lee. Not really ballads.
