HI Brew-Thanks for your great choices. I don't think there are a lot of jazz anorexics.
Yeah, Steve, I don't think that either; most of our heros - when there were no hard drugs involved of course - most of those folks were full of sap, and great eaters ;)
I would have thrown Josh White's One Meat Ball into the pot. :)
The problem is getting it to stay in the pot.
