Ned--I like the fact the all the information we've traded is all in one place here. For now I do not have plans to start another thread.....
I just took a quick listen to Profoundly again, and yes I am struck by the chord changes. Pretty sophisticated, I imagine Charlie and Meade worked those out. I will take those down and post them if I can.
Regarding Jimmy G, who I have studied in depth myself.....I do love everything he did with the clarinet, but I'm often struck by how it is his compositions and his framing of the clarinet that are his true genius, not necessarily his clarinet playing per se.
I have a few things of his I've written out, let me see what kind of shape they are in. I hope to do a blog post on him at some point.
I've heard Perry Robinson plays some amazing things right in my face at a whisper that were so soulful and gentle it made the hair on my arms stick up. Perry plays with a double lip embouchure and he's able to play that way because of this. He has remarked to me that he stays away from the altissimo because of the double lip as well....
