Also, please no "swing room". I don't know if jazzers are aware of this, but "swinging" is also famous in our times for being a particular sexual practice that I don't really care for.

Maybe we should compromise and choose a different but still funny titled genre. How about The Dixie Room? And we'd be dixies.

Approve

Crossings should get 5 stars.
And I Sing the Body Electric probably 4.5 stars.

Sextant is too inconsistent for my taste, and the Weather Report debut might get an extra 0.5.
