Les Paul & Mary Ford - "Tiger Rag" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Owa10YBJfNU Check out all the multi-layered music and vocals! ALL guitar work done by Les, and ALL vocals done by Mary! Multi-layering as we know it today started with Les Paul. If not for him, we would not be where we musically are today.

Mmmm, I'm not real sure "intelligent" is the right word. Probably more along the lines of "cultured" and not mindless. As a result, it will be a b!tch to keep afloat.

As a result, it will be a b!tch to keep afloat. cultured would be a better term...and to add my 2 cents...Mack The Knife by Satchmo,thou i prefer the more pop version by Bobby Darin...Darin actualy did some nice jazz stuff after his rock and pop career faded he was a huge talent be seeing you
