His name is James, show some respect. How has he promoted Jazz or improvised music? I would have thought he's promoted himself very well and had a lot of fun doing it. Look, he is an extremely talented musician. He is an entertainer that people enjoy, otherwise he would not have the audience he does. But, and boy this but is bigger than his, he is not an improviser or an artist in my book, and I'm sure he doesn't care that I believe this, he is a happy man. The best way to 'promote' (by which I would mean to further the progress of) this artform is to be vital and creative in the process of development of the music. Names like Mark Simmonds, Grabowsky, Trelour, Frampton, Buck, Nock, but to name a few deserve respect on this level, Jimmy ain't near that list for me. This might be a good time for me to announce that James Morrison and I are doing a free improvisation duo concert to close the Brisbane Jazz Festival on November 1. We've talked about it for some years so are looking forward to making it a reality. |

Ha, life is so funny. I certainly stand by what I said but I hope you prove me incredibly wrong Mark, maybe you can turn the tables and create a very wonderful artistic situation. I hope so and wish you all the best. If it's recorded I'd like to check it out, I've been wrong so many times, I'm up for another.

Thanks for the good wishes. Wasn't going to say anything yet but it was too apposite to resist.

... (Morrison) is not an improviser or an artist in my book, and I'm sure he doesn't care that I believe this. This might be a good time for me to announce that James Morrison and I are doing a free improvisation duo concert ... Among all the entertaining exchanges I've been reading in the past few minutes — the thread/topic seems weave like saxophonist on heat — this kind of formal response set me cackling wildly. ("We can just be each other's enema then" was also an enticing image). Is this a jazz forum or a fun forum? And who is Ladylex? |

Hey, Jazz is fun, we are improvisers after all. That's where jec loses me, no idea of the creative depraved and idiotic mind! We live on tangents, well at least I don't.

For those who have no idea what shaggaz said, translation; Oh my god totally! Laughing my fat ass off! As to what she means, I have no idea.
Still waiting on what the endemic problem is as you see it too Mark. When you get back from the loo you can continue,,,,,

It seems safe to assume she has a sense of humour and did have a fat ass. ... and that she knows Ladylex, though whether that's in the biblical sense or not remains in the dark |

Endemic problem: too much bullshit, not enough practice. Now shut up and practice Iron. I'm going to.

So I guess you can retract that comment about me sweeping it under the carpet?

I'm not getting into the retraction game mate, if we did you might need to retract some things too. I thought we were calling it quits. Go and practice like I said or console yourself with some tissues.
