Using as a starting point his selection, Townsend Detective Agency , from his album Hard Listening vol 2 , Mitch shares his love for older musical styles and languages, (roughly those from, say, the forties through the 60s and 70s)  ideas about shifting from one section to another in a piece of music, the uses of restrictions as a boost to improvisation and much more.
