this podcast is going to be all about 60's music. the goal with this podcast is to educate a younger generation on one of the greatest decades of music of all time, and to prove to people that Millennials can love 60's music as well and it's not just for Baby boomers. Each week I"m going to review one song by one artist from the 60's and split the podcast into two halfs. first half is going to be my perspective and my opinion on the song and why I think it's so good or why I don't think it's ...

I explore the controversies related to Tommy Flanagan's solo on Coltrane's Giant steps, plus Cannonball Adderley's solo in Milestones.
One jazz writer stated "With Giant steps Coltrane supplanted Cherokee as the litmus test for aspiring improvisers, packing so many harmonic substitutions into one progression that at first blush, consummate pianist Tommy Flanagan could barely eke his way through the changes". So how bad was Flanagans's solo? And was Coltrane's solo so powerful that it could cause us to experience vertigo (as one reviewer suggested).
Then there's that controversy around Cannonball Adderley's solo in Miles (aka Milestones). Fred Hersch said it 'shone'. Another writer said he 'struggled' because he tried to play it like bebop rather than like modal music. You be the judge.
Other solos featured are by Elvin Jones, McCoy Tyner, Guido Basso, Ornette Coleman, Sarah Vaughan, Clifford Brown, and Charlie Christian.
