Thanks for reminding me to cover the standards—I gradually grew into the 
biggies—Sinatra, Cole, Bennett, etc. They’re timeless! H’mm, I’ll have to 
sample some of the later Prince—I’m also really into the old Chicago, Blood, 
Sweat and Tears—stuff that verges on fusion (incidentally, also Manhattan 
Transfer and Vince Gueraldi). I guess I was typing too fast before—my 
apologies, when I was discussing back-masking, to neglect the name of the 
band for “More Power To Ya”—it’s Petra. Back to Prince, though—you can, even 
in his greatest hits, note the jazz influence—e.g., in “When Doves Cry,” 
when he kinda scats “doo doo-bee-doo, wo-o-o-o”

Yeah, the trailer park, that’s another good one to add to the 
country-back-masking theme... love it!
