Thanks for the welcome.

I'll listen to any good tune played/sung well.

My preferences are "old fashioned modern jazz," big band classics, some contemporary jazz singers, vintage pop, Motown.
I subscribe to a Yamaha dedicated electric piano board, where we link our efforts, for others to comment on. I've got about 200 recordings on "Box"

I'm not that good, I like to use the jazz chords.
