the one and only

MILES DAVIS

who else?


2nd choice:

Eric Leeds (sop./bar. sax)
Matt Blistan (trumpet)
Michael Nelson (trombone)


- or maybe

Dr. Fink and his fat and sharp analog synths horn riffs, the original Minneapolis sound.

...and btw Najee is to jazz what Michael Bolton was to soul, and Maceo seriously need to chill, just like Eddie M and Candy D and basically alto sax players in general! mr.green

Maceo's cool, but I always (want to) hear Eric's horn in his music. It's like Eric belongs to Prince music like Maceo belongs to JB's.
