pryso, that’s correct. The clip was backed up with the music from Conte (it was the same thing with Fred and Ginger clip, Conte with Via con me/It’s wonderful, but that was unlike in the first clip, obvious). To me he fitted nicely. However, I should have posted original clip with Lila Downs as well. Out of appreciation and of course, because she deserves it. Thank you for correcting this.
Jazz for aficionados
Jazz for aficionados
I'm going to review records in my collection, and you'll be able to decide if they're worthy of your collection. These records are what I consider "must haves" for any jazz aficionado, and would be found in their collections. I wont review any record that's not on CD, nor will I review any record if the CD is markedly inferior. Fortunately, I only found 1 case where the CD was markedly inferior to the record.
Our first album is "Moanin" by Art Blakey and The Jazz Messengers. We have Lee Morgan , trumpet; Benney Golson, tenor sax; Bobby Timmons, piano; Jymie merrit, bass; Art Blakey, drums.
The title tune "Moanin" is by Bobby Timmons, it conveys the emotion of the title like no other tune I've ever heard, even better than any words could ever convey. This music pictures a person whose down to his last nickel, and all he can do is "moan".
"Along Came Betty" is a tune by Benny Golson, it reminds me of a Betty I once knew. She was gorgeous with a jazzy personality, and she moved smooth and easy, just like this tune. Somebody find me a time machine! Maybe you knew a Betty.
While the rest of the music is just fine, those are my favorite tunes. Why don't you share your, "must have" jazz albums with us.
Enjoy the music.

(You did not hear this from me) It's Christmas time, time for rok2id to post some Christmas songs. I mean, how he can peacefully sleep at night, knowing that noone is on jazz af today and some jazz newbie is posting who knows what? For heaven sakes, that is outrages and ought to be corrected...This stands for orpheus too. ; ) |
So, on that matter, I am with you, Schubert....’sensitive kind’...This should stand for women toward men as well. |
///pryso/// "Baby It's Cold Outside" is being banned by several radio stations from their holiday music lists because of the "won't take no for an answer" theme and what that implies. *** I have just google it, there are so many links on this theme. It's funny. Media is facing the lack of important subjects so it has to deliver the meaningless news? If this happens during summer time, we call it "the pickle season". : ) However, it's interesting way to promote a song. |
So does UK and Ireland but not dear Russia.It shows your deepest and undying love for Russia. USA <3 ♡ Russia https://youtu.be/GwvMaB6adqU |
After lullaby. The YT didn't want to let me out before this song was finished. "Stay" it whispered... "Stay"... "Dream a little dream of me..." https://youtu.be/gxrws7omOHQ |
...a moment for nice thoughts and wishes. Do not be stressed since whenever you feel like that, just remember that stressed means desserts spelled backwards. Merry Christmas everyone. https://youtu.be/ZrQQaiaN1O8 |
And I think, that if I sprinkled the Jazz Queen of Croatia with Holy Water, she would Sizzle. :-)))) something like that I ain't believer but I am not uninformed, I lived once in Catholic faith but stopped being a believer about 15 years ago. I am telling this just to tell you that I understand the song that you posted for me. That was nice of you, thank you. ;--) |
To our OP:Lol... ;--) |
I like almost everything that you post kid, but I am not thrilled with Admira. Something is missing. I need more of what she is offering. But maybe I can't recognize the good stuff. Anything is possible. Himzo https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fKdmryzZyTE Jadranka https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pZvltzZqVgE |
Catching cold has it’s advantages. You free yourself from every day work and you enjoy in the benefits of beautiful silence around yourself since you are voluntarily placed in some sort of quarantine. So I am sitting in my room now, with layers of clothing, it is probably warm inside but I do not feel it. Properly dressed, looking more like a polar bear on ice than human, I feel feverish and fine at the same time. My only companion, big bright orange, is lying in a carefree way on my computer desk, unaware of the fate that is about to face. Time for jazz. No other time would be more appropriate. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r2S1I_ien6A https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PSNPpssruFY https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NTJhHn-TuDY https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4bjPlBC4h_8 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QTMqes6HDqU https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H6mfWun73vI Time to sneeze... ....aaachoo!! Sorry guys... |
Fro, if it would be otherwise, it would not be interesting. From the drums of Gene Krupa till the Chet’s trumpet lullaby. A perfect set. From strong to easy going. I have to pamper the cold you know. Poor thing is very busy these days. Your funny Muppets will fit right in. I thank you for that.
Cold Weather Blues, excellent. By the way, have you noticed the comment below Goodman’s Sing, Sing clip? "I’m only 16 and I like this music. I’m 14 and I like this music. I’m 4 and I like this music. I’m 3 months old and I like this music. I’m 2 days old and I like this music. I’m 2 hours old and I like this music. I’m still a fetus and I like this music. I’m an embryo and I like this music. I’m still an egg cell and I like this music. I’m a strand of DNA and I like this music. I’m a Carbon atom (not yet part of a DNA strand) and I like this music. I’m a Neutron (soon to be part of a Carbon atom) and I like this music. I’m still a Quark and I like this music." |
O-10, I do not know about Alex, but samba is not my cup of tea. I find it too joyful. :--) Melancholic Fado music (still portuguese language :--)) performed by good looking Mariza: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=KxAEPi_yQI8 https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=S2Ip-uUhaoI |
