Re: Jay McShann
There's a Proper Pair of Jay McShann -- how is this stuff? Should I pick it up? I've heard some exciting stuff about this group; I love their tune on Engine Room, and I heard Charlie Parker got his start there. Did they have any vocalists?

My take on exchanges is that they should be for showing the rest of the country how great your scene is, including DJs. If you don't have a scene worth sharing then you shouldn't be having an exchange in the first place. I agree, but can't it also serve the purposes of encouraging the local scene t...
