[Rhodes22-list] Politics - chiaroscuro

[Grayson/Ena Lynn]

No slam... just pining for the days when the likes of Charlie Byrd, Tal
Farlow, Johnny Smith, Howard Roberts, Wes Montgomery, Charlie Christian,
Barney Kessel, Joe Pass and so many others could still play guitar without
making all that noise about it.  Play "Misty" for me.
