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.

Thank you kindly.

 

"That Old Black Magic" brought me back to my younger days and Louis Prima and Keely Smith.  One of my earliest ventures into Jazzy type music.
