I'm so with you on the horns. Most songs are improved with the addition of a horn section, in my estimation. Though I took a class on it in college, I've still never really been taken with much jazz beyond the early '40s. I know remarkably little about your own musical tastes, but would you say that you like jam bands? I decidedly don't, and I wonder if that has any correlation to my lack of interest in bebob and beyond. (I'm not disparaging that sort of music at all, just saying it's not my speed. I'm a little straightforward in my tastes, honestly. I want to clap to an obvious rhythm and I want to sing harmony, mostly.)
And yeah, I check in every day or two and comment if I have anything moderately useful to add, but I very rarely post anymore. I'm the worst kind of internet user: "It's just not the same without everyone posting all the time" she says, lurking.
(PS - I JUST NOW figured out that LJ no longer allows subject lines for comments. I...it used to, right? Am I misremembering that?)
