Good example: Take an Ed song and turn it over to Pomplamoose, and they make an incredible musical number out of it. Anyway moving on: Blues-ette (Japanese Release) Curtis Fuller Quintet 1959 https://album.link/us/i/1433694962 Example:

hmmm. But I like Bonnie Raitt, Tori Amos, Reba McEntire, Florence Welch. Oh wait - they are all female..... hmmmm Ah ... Trey Anastasio, I like him... Ha, I win! Wait ... what did I win?

So, I was watching an Ed Sheeran cover by Scary Pockets, and I thought to myself, what am I missing with Ed? I just don't get it for some reason. I have heard his music all around and many covers. So, I sat down and listened to and hour plus of his songs. They were recorded well, the melodies were nice, the lyrics were mostly sentimental but well crafted. But still nothing caught me, nothing to say, 'Ah, now I get it'. And in the end maybe that is it, it is nice, but not for me. 🤷‍♂️ etc...

His Mid-80s run are still some of my favorite movies. RIP William.
