A fortunate coincidence is that myspace just increased the number of songs an artist can upload. I have uploaded "Rotten Kid" and "Reunion at Newport" to my myspace page.
Listening to "God Bless the Child" right now. Sounding really good. Always love a balanced-sounding band. I don't think there is enough of you volume-wise, to no fault of your own.
You have a very cool, clear tone. I enjoy it a lot.
I haven't heard of it, though I am searching for it now! Like I said, I've not been a poets fan for too long, maybe a few weeks. Always looking for their stuffs though!
Carnival of Rust is both an amazing song and album, though I found the song Late Goodbye to be absolutely brilliant, possibly even better the Carnival and The Beautiful Ones
I heard the song The Beautiful Ones in some machinima on Youtube and fell in love with it, started listening to more of them, but I'm always searching for more. What are your fav. songs?
A little while ago I put a group of my live recordings from big band and combo nights at my college onto a myspace page. http://www.myspace.com/drewminaker The first track is an original composition and "All Blues" is a personal funkified arrangement.
I play sax. Typically tenor for jazz and alto for my legit playing.
As for a favorite jazzer, I'm going to say Branford Marsalis, particularly when he plays (played? they might not be playing together anymore) with the trio he recorded several albums with. Jeff Tain Watts on drums, etc. I love his group's innovation, but primarily I find his melodious improvisation to be at the end of the track I want to direct myself as I develop my sound and ideas.
