I always want to see the post following my latest, to see how the next player may have played off of what I posted (sometimes I play again right away, to keep the "conversation" going). Depending on how many posts have been made since my latest post, I may or may not read everything, but I generally do. Exactly. The game is at its best when played creatively and thoughtfully. My approach is to not post unless I think I have something fairly good (and I mean that in terms of meeting my own standards... something that I feel good about posting). Quality over quantity. If you gonna play, play well. The game is all about using one's imagination, like when you're playing jazz. I must say that I hate it when I see the lazy stuff (three people named Jones, or Smith, or whatever, when there's no apparent sub-plot going on). Learn the game. Respect the game. Dammit, this isn't a game! (Oh wait...).

Thanks for posting that. At the time that was recorded, what many guitar players would be doing for the rest of their life was trying to find all those long out-of-print Johnny Smith LP's! Every jazz guitar player I ever met or read about wanted some of that man's technique. A true legend in the world of jazz on the guitar (a reputation well earned), and by all accounts a great gentleman. RIP.
