Great Monk rok Here is another live monk recording that gets a lot of repeated plays this way. **Thelonious Monk - Big Band and Quartet** Monk’s third album for Columbia Records, recorded live at the newly completed Philharmonic Hall at Lincoln Center, NYC, on Monday, December 30, 1963. The original LP release omits three compositions, "Bye-Ya," "Misterioso," and "Light Blue," and to save space also Dunlop’s drum solos were edited out. The entire unedited concert was released in 1994 as a two-disk album. I have the complete 2 disc concert 1994 mentioned above which includes 3 of the following 4 songs that were omitted on the original LP. Saxophones are Phil Woods on alto and Charlie Rouse on tenor and Steve Lacy on soprano. Thad Jones on cornet and Nick Travis on trumpet. Eddie Bert on trombone and Gene Allen on
Baritone Saxophone, Bass Clarinet, Clarinet. Butch Warren on bass. Frank Dunlop on drums. Phil Woods also plays the
Clarinet on a few songs. (30) Light Blue (Live) (Lincoln Center) - YouTube (30) Evidence (Live) (Lincoln Center) - YouTube (30) Misterioso (Live at Lincoln Center) - YouTube (30) Bye-Ya (Live) (Lincoln Center) - YouTube |

mahgister, that Over the Rainbow is often on my play list. Love that simplicity.
For me in spite of ALL the other very beautiful rendition, this one is the more uplifting and spiritual... The singer was revered like a god by his people and die young.... Regards... |

You made immediately listening and responding a must - what a splendid half hour break! keegiam, I am very glad you liked it. Waving you from Croatia. :--) |
pjw, I can’t even tell how many times I’ve listened that song from Bee Gees To Love Somebody. Its tragic to watch a loved one be hurt by someone they thought was caring and loving but was the opposite. I guess we all have been there at some point in our lives, more or less involved. You learn a lesson and move on. Life is unstoppable, another chance for love will come for sure, with the opportunity to love again, this time with wiser head and heart. |

pjw, Art Pepper, Over the Rainbow, that's great.

I am glad you liked it, Mike. |

We did not see a thing...funny :---))))

That’s truly a lovely version of Over the Rainbow. Can’t help but bring a tear to your eye to watch and listen to Eva Cassidy singing it, knowing that’s the sweet somewhere she surely is now.
And thanks Mary_jo for the link to Benny Golson’s "Lullaby of Birdland a few days ago. That was enjoyable to listen to.

Still, there’s something about young Judy Garland’s......
You bet! i discovered like many the song with her.... Thanks |

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2rd8VktT8xY Wow beautiful.... Very different then my favorite version but on par with it because of the difference in the way emotions are communicated between the 2 but with complete truthfulness in the expression... Combative viril moving trust in one side, vibrant fragile growing and touching hope on the feminine side... Thanks |

@mahgister I had a 7" 45 RPM vinyl copy of "THE DOCK OF THE BAY" on the "Volt" label. I was about 10 years old at the time.
I also post music from time to time that is not jazz. Yesterday I posted a couple of Bee Gees tunes after our resident bird watcher Marija had brought up the relationship/love topic.
The "OVER THE RAINBOW" on the ukulele is cool. This ukulele (banjo) song is probably the most well known in the USA. Fast forward to 2:45.

Bold post, thanks! Enjoyable ukelele number. Who can resist that tune (and scenery)?
Uke videos have multiplied like rabbits, with predictable outcomes. For me, the best are enjoyable because of our emotional attachment to certain songs. I can't forget one particular amateur cover of Amy Winehouse's "Love is a Losing Game." We all know it's not about musicianship or SQ.

Some songs and singers are mysterious... It is not jazz and i apologize... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V1bFr2SWP1I But it reveal why music is about soul...Whatever the style diffrence or nevermind the genre difference.... Like in "soul music", like Otis Reading singing " the dock of the bay", when i listened to him from a small transistor radio when i was 14 years old, without knowing what is "soul" but feeling it for the first time perhaps.... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wyPKRcBTsFQ |
@acman3 Nice Ray Brown clip.
Like your posting style. You're acman, not yakman.

MJ, a riveting post, thank you so much. I was planning to "stop by" for a few minutes to see if there were new posts, and it was like a wonderful wake-up call in reverse (it "woke me up" from my frantic day). Turned my day around 180 for awhile.
**** I hope things will be better for you soon. **** I should have been more clear, sorry. My life has gotten crazy busy again (which is good for income), not just plain "crazy again." Your concern is touching! **** When they fall in love things become slower, they already
know so much about each other that typing at some point becomes
sufficient because they know what the other one will type as soon as one
put their computer on. **** Superb analogy! **** For you https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g0oLYCdoDC8 **** Thanks so much - beautiful composition, beautiful piano. It was only after joining the forum I even became aware of "Lotus Blossom," and I didn't stop to listen. I was looking up Yusef Lateef's "Plum Blossom" and recall seeing the title but moving on. Thankfully you brought it to my attention; if it were on one of the recordings I have, I'm sure I would know it. Hard to believe this coincidence! You made immediately listening and responding a must - what a splendid half hour break! |

That is very nice pjw. *.*
And that is true, yes. And sometimes they do not know how much power they have over us. |

Being a relative newbie, I'm a little concerned with the fall-off in posting. Kind of selfish since I've been soaking it up, and my life has gotten crazy again.
I hope things will be better for you soon. We are here already for quite a while. Top team is here from the beginning so it is like in love, at first is passionate and lovers are very busy with their hands typing...they want to get to know each other better and they type and type... When they fall in love things become slower, they already know so much about each other that typing at some point becomes sufficient because they know what the other one will type as soon as one put their computer on. For you https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g0oLYCdoDC8 |
by Peppino Gagliardi https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kffaKHD4v9wI am listening this all day. And I think I will cry. :--) Because of the beauty of the song. Of the beauty that I can see from my window today. Sunset playing tenderly with clouds. The play reveals in all kinds of colours. Un Amore Grande between sun and clouds. ~~~ Or it is something in me? |

Great tracks, thanks Mr. Frog. Despite your warning that the second was faster, I was still surprised by the degree.
Being a relative newbie, I'm a little concerned with the fall-off in posting. Kind of selfish since I've been soaking it up, and my life has gotten crazy again. Maybe the long-time members can provide perspective - was the OP an "attention vortex"? Too many henchmen? Seasonal?

He is risen, indeed. :---)

@frogman
Thanks. This is another one for "Music Premium" members only. Are any of you other JFA regulars in YouTube's premium service?
Got a kick out of your post on another forum yesterday.
