I usually say I don't like Jazz, but this is something fine. Is this Jazz?

Canteloupe Island and Watermelon Man. The man has a knack for fruits and jazz. I love it. Interesting to hear his chronological discography up and through the 80s with "Rockit". This artist is amazing in so many ways. I love it.

Oh yeah! Love that sforzando at the beginning of each line (well, a couple of 'em anyway).

First track of the day and as soon as it came on my grizzly 14 month old daughter broke into a huge grin and started dancing next to the speakers.

Part of the beauty of RP is that it doesn't get stuck in a groove. One size fits all kind of music gets really old and tiring after awhile. I like your combos RP! Keep up the good work...

Don't get me wrong—the more Jazz on RP, the better. Love HH.
