The Good Stuff



There are simply two kinds of music, good music and the other kind ... the only yardstick by which the result should be judged is simply that of how it sounds. If it sounds good it's successful; if it doesn't it has failed. --  Duke Ellington

This purpose of this thread is to provide a place to post outstanding examples of the Good Music.

My CD has a different cover art, but it is the same album.

Female singers singing the Blues.  The first one was actually posted by The Frogman on JFA.   So I know he knows the real thing when he hears it.  Sometimes he just wants to, as Acman3 would say, start a ruckus.

The ultimate.

Questions for The Frogman:

What is the deal with 'exposition repeats'?   Was it mandatory that the composer write them in the piece?  Talk abou it.

Thanks
