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.

The Queen Lives!!!   I thought Putin had kidnapped you.  Good to hear from you.  What is Jazz without it's Queen?

Elvis lives, but me too! No Earthling can kidnap me, it is piece of cake to handle him!
