You see very few mondo talented rock/jazz/blues musicians. Good ones just not great ones. I guess it's the flavor of the moment. Jazz and other proggressive music forms are being replaced in the masses by country and rap/hiphop. Nothing wrong with that if thats what the masses want but the true new talents don't get the spot light they did in the past...maybe again someday. SBF1
