Woo Hoo!  You made it!  if you are the first one, you can create your own hidden room now.

Click on Create Room to the left, and make sure you set the "private room" flag when you create the new one.

"The guy that I think has done more for blues than most people, which
is why we called him the Godfather.
Regardless to what jazz did, regardless to what country or anything else, ????? had his style and he stayed with it. And it
still stands today with most of us as a guideline for playing real,
true blues".  

-B.B. King

When I first listened to Nat King Cole it was like Wow! Very smooth stuff, exactly the right stuff.

Aha made it
After a false start with Barry Manilow the other day the answer turned up in the lobby. Barry Manilow was around in the 40's surely?!

Clue for Rick
He wrote the song that launched the big "swing revival" of the late '90's (though he wrote like 40 years earlier).

No, I need them!  I'm in a complete jam and stuck in Muddy Waters right now. I think I even lost a boot.

secret room
I just added a new private room. It's a tribute to one of the greatest bebop pianoplayers. He is known for his amazing technical  facility and often plays unison runs in both hands. He has made an outstanding trio album with Roy Haynes and Paul  Chambers in 1958. The name of the player is also the name of the room. Good Luck with it

He's quite good
He is a master of playing with a guitarist. Not and easy thing to do. Listen to 'the man I love'. Tis well good.

OK, I'm pretty sure I have this but no room.  Is it (are we) there yet?
