He did, Venky - at Garden State in November. I wasn't at SPAH so didn't get 
 to hear him play there but was given a heads-up by Smokey, who loved  his 
playing. Sammy played in front of a 3 piece Jazz trio during the late-night  
jazz jams, even sitting in on piano once or twice (displaying terrific 
piano  skills) and definitely had people sitting up and taking notice of his 
jazz chops  based on the level of the applause (this mostly from much older 
chromatic  jazz players not usually all that enamoured of ob's).
 
 
The kid's 'got it' - and I have most of it on video.<G>

PS: just what does 'appropriate' mean when it comes to jazz  improv?

"maybe he'd sound better with a band where he'd have a chance to phrase  
things out, listen to others and do the appropriate fills."  Venky
