  through the years...Morrison,Hendrix,Joplin,Garland and so on they had an addiction and a god-given talent that in the end was wasted on the search for self-gratification.

    for the blamers and enforcers of this world.

    incipient priggishness is something YOU need to watch.

    JIMO&E and Yes YMMV.

    And life is a POV thing, after all.

    Billie Holdiay is an American original. She was a creative artist that changed misic. Dianna Ross is a good performer. That's it. The poor sound quality of Billie Holdiay recordings make it harder to tell; but as you learn more about music, you'll get better at telling the real thing from
    the imitators.
