:lol:
"Exotica snobs"!"His vibes solo wasn't quite 'other worldly' enough, IMO."
"Yes, and the bird calls were more Western Hemisphere than Eastern, wouldn't you say?"
"Agreed! And the pseudo Chinese-y sounding passage in that last song was really more post-Communist era than Pre. Why, I'd say it wasn't even pseudo Chinese-y at all! More faux pseudo Chinese-y!!"
"Horrors! Do you suppose they might even have jazz records in their collections?"
"Heaven forbid! Nothing but Latin-y, Asian-ish, Arab-esque, and Sandy Warner approved Exotica in MY collection!"
"Hear, hear!"

I'll sign up for your class any day, Professor!
