Anyone here who loves (or even likes) jazz, or Woody Allen for that matter, should
see "Sweet and Low" (I think that was the title), Woody's faux-documentary of a
30's or 40's jazz guitarist.  Sean Penn plays the guitarist.  I think it was
released around 2 years ago.  Great flick, great soundtrack.

Strange, but as I started reading through this thread, I had Miles Davis'
"Nefertiti" on the CD, blasting nice and loud.  Probably his strongest over-all
band, with Herbie Hancock, Ron Carter, Wayne Shorter.  I know, I know, some of his
'50's bands were pretty amazing, too, especially the musicians on "Kind of Blue"
(hard to beat Coltrane, Evans and Adderly...).  I could argue with myself for
hours.

I know it ain't about Pentax, but ya gotta love jazz!

regards,
frank
