Hi, Ann,
What do you mean by "old"?
You know, there are lots of kids (meaning younger than me... <vbg>) out there who get much of their inspiration from people like Coltrane, Bird, Evans, Davis, Monk. Listen to Micheal Brecker, the Marsalis brothers, Brad Meldhau, Joshua Redman (Dewey Redman's kid). Mind you, ya gotta watch that they're doing an acoustic set, as some of them will play with electric bands once in a while, but on the whole, they'll do an entire CD of acoustic, or an entire CD of electric.
And, of course, some of the "young lions" from the 60's are still around, making fresh stuff, like Brubeck, Herbie Hancock, Wayne Shorter, Keith Jarrett, and just blowing the current youngsters off the stage! <vbg>
Maybe I'll bring some newer acoustic stuff down to GFM. Surely someone will have a boom box... <vbg>
cheers, frank

Add me to that list :)
Well, the old stuff -- I don't really know the new kids on the block
