I'll never forget looking down at him standing next to me and asking him "So, what do you want to play?" ... "How about a shuffle in F?" was his answer ... F!!! He then launched into the most wonderful shuffle in F. Anything I played, he answered back. He wound up doing a tour in the US with BB King and appeared on a Coke ad with BB, too.
Jeff Baxter used to come to Australia often to produce TV jingles for the ad agency who organized the jam.

I wonder if Jeff Baxter is related to Shaun Baxter which is a extremely talented Jazz Metal guitar player 
Most of us go to our graves with our music still inside of us.
