Cass I only dream about being able to play Take Five, another idea for ejam #2 could be instead of choosing 2 or 3 songs, why not each jam just pic different genre, eg: Rock & Roll, Polka, Latin, Waltz, Country, etc. This way it would give people a broader choice as long as they stay within the genre selected for that jam? Remember many people on SZ are from other countries also.

John, that's another good idea that's been brought up before. I'm sure it would work and that we would hear some very different music. It may be worth a try in the future - or when you take over this eJam stuff
. But then we might not have heard all those stirring renditions of Nearness of You.
I think back to Donny's first post there and how good that was. I appreciated the comments about Bill's and my vocals too - did I miss any? But now these instrumental versions are just blowing me away. This is more than I hoped for. AND, it sure has brought a lot of SZers out of the shadows and into the spotlight. This has really energized me and given me a much greater appreciation of everyone here on SZ. If I/we have somehow slighted those in other countries, I apologize and ask for their input so we can get even more participation.
Lastly, I'm still waiting to hear your musical post, John. C'mon you can do it.
