Even more off topic if you are going to do a "cover" infuse some originality into it ,most music are not original but usually covers ,thats okay if you do something with it. I'm starting to think that modern culture has no memory , they are now remaking movies less than a decade since they original release ?? Are you very into Jazz ? maybe some hint of current musicianship in another tread ? (as a contrast Im listening to something modern and electronic just now ) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Mnyb's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=4143 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=96407
