I really like jazz music.... perhaps this is influenced by the fact that my dad was the best jazz musician ever to come out of South Africa.....

but, its great to listen to...

and it makes some of the best dance music... music these days, while i love that too... somehow just doesn't have that "ok to hell with it, i absolutely have to dance to this" kinda feel.... i cant help it... my toes start tapping...
