Will Friedwald, the Mort "Badde" Goode of today's CD booklets, oohs and aahs over the masterpieces of forty years ago as he ponders some act that is getting all the chords and nuances right to recreate the body of work of the sacred Beatles, which unfortunately conjures the notion that a lot of that "classic" music helped set up today's noxious situation where we're reduced to ghost bands -- isn't that what you should call them, Mr. CD Booklet? You've done enough big-band anthologies -- and no future classics can possibly emerge today, unless another Mort "Badde" Goode is there to excuse them away, as is too likely.
