Advantages: the best jazz going around these days

Disadvantages: none really

I would just like to say that I think that the James Taylor Quartet is the finest jazz I have heard in some time, I was at a gig of there's and was worried about how good they were, I had heard someone say that they played acid jazz and never hearing it before I feared the worst, I am a huge jazz fan, I am only 20 and its my life, when I got in I thought that they might be okay, was I wrong or what, they sang hits from the doors, the woman was outstanding, they got the crowds singing, it was one of the best nights that I have had, it was truely an eyeopener, just fantastic.
I don't want to advertise but go and see them if you like jazz.
The quartet has been going since the 1980s and are still going strong today, unlike the traditional jazz of the greats like Nina Simone and old "Thatchmo", the quartet are a new and bold vision in jazz, the mix of some soft and acid jazz, the result is a very impressive combo, the history of jazz has never looked so good, by what the quartet has showed.
The acid jazz sounds that they play can be compaired (in some respects) to the strange but highly enjoyible sound of Jay Kay, who himself is a new step in music, although the quartet had come along some time before, there strange mix is loud, but not annoying, the music punches holes in the air and makes you feel so alive
