[78-L] Freddy or... r

[Taylor Bowie]

Yes,  there is plenty of good jazz to be had with Welk as well,  esp. the 
1955 -65 era.

Seriously,  if it's good....it's good.  Who cares who it is?  As Sean Miller 
knows,  I even managed to give Vaughn De Leath another chance,  and I'm glad 
I did!

Taylor
