I am sure the OP might appreciate (along with other Basschatters) a wide selection and differing opinions of what Jazz/Funk is, sounds like. Music ain't it? On a Musicians site.

urb Posted December 19, 2014 Share Posted December 19, 2014 The Jon Cleary vids are great - I love this about him: Jon Cleary is a funk and R&B musician based in New Orleans, Louisiana. [b]He was originally from Cranbrook in Kent, England[/b], and has studied for the past 20 years the "musical culture and life of New Orleans," according to his website. [url="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jon_Cleary_%28musician%29"]Wikipedia[/url] He's playing at the Barbican with John Scofield next April http://www.barbican.org.uk/music/event-detail.asp?ID=17298 Should be a great gig Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
