Chas,

No disrespect. Diki says you're a hell of a jazz player, and I assume that's the case. I'm not a good player, never professed to be, just an entertainer. I only wish I had half the talent some of the guys on the forum have when it comes to playing. I can't read a note, never could, don't have enough formal training to even talk about, but I have a lot of fun doing what I do--entertaining. For me, a guy that began playing a 6-string guitar and singing in a smoke filled bar at age 17, then graduating to a 12-string guitar and playing bigger bars and restaurants for 10 years, the arranger keyboard is the best thing since sliced bread. Sure, I play a lot of different types of music, even some jazz, but I have always envied individuals that have hands that can fly over any instrument and hit all the right notes. And, from what Diki says, you're in that category. I don't always agree with what Diki says, or for that matter what anyone else says, but I do read every post and even at my age I continue to learn by reading the threads on this and other forums. There are some extremely talented and inteligent individuals here. Sometimes they get into a pissin' contest, which irks the hell out of me, but that's another story.

Cheers,

Gary
