Jazz for aficionados
Well I guess you could call once every week and hope for the best. I prayed for O10 last night and lit a candle for him under my Mother Mary statue. |
Frogman there is a relatively new live release from Pepper Adams titled Pepper Adams And The Tommy Banks Trio: Live At Room At The Top See here Pepper Adams and the Tommy Banks Trio: Live at Room at the Top album review @ All About Jazz And its available on vinyl so knowing your preference to vinyl and your fondness for Pepper Adams I thought you would be interested. |
This post is for all my acquaintances here on JFA although we have never met and the frogman elaborated on this subject on the previous page we are all friends or acquaintances, somewhat at least. I had been in the construction field as a residential house framer for 35 years but decided the physical part of that work was to much for a man in his 50s quickly approaching 60 so 3 years ago I graduated a local CDL school and started driving tractor trailers. The pay is good although I made more as a framing sub contractor I have gladly taken the pay cut (not too much) for the less physically demanding job of driving a semi. I am approaching retirement and will be moving from NY to North Carolina and I can get a driving job down there no problem. I currently live on Long Island NY and my property tax is almost 1000,00 per month and thanks to the Biden administration home fuel heating oil has doubled this year (I just paid 1456,00 to fill up my 280 gallon tank) and this will only last me 2 months so around Christmas I need to fill up again. A small house for my wife and I in NC will be around 100.00 per month in property tax and Winter is way less harsh there so I probably could heat my house and have hot water with just 280 gallons for the whole year (in NY i need to fill up my tank four times per year) Anyway we will be moving soon and need to cut down on items that would have to move with us. I have stopped buying physical CDs because I already have enough to take up a lot of space in a small moving truck (imagine if I had vinyl it would be 4x the space). I started using Spotify for streaming any new music I want and they have millions of jazz songs and complete albums and it all can be customized and I have the Spotify Phone App and listen to my music via blue tooth in my rig when I’m on the road. Anyway Alek and Marija are friends with me on Facebook where I post some of my over the road adventures but I wanted to share with by friends here as well.
The reason I have not been posting so much here is because I drive 10 - 12 hours per day and sleep a lot when I get home. I plan on posting more often (stop being lazy). Ok got that off my chest and I hope the few minutes it takes to read this wont bore any of you. Have a great Sunday and keep listening to jazz, the greatest music genre, and keep posting on JFA! |

Thanks @rok2id On lazy Saturday mornings, I usually pick an artist and play album after album until either I can get my butt in gear or my wife gets on me to play someone else. |

**** Is that Sanborn? ****
I can see why you may have thought so, but you’re right, no it’s not. First, it’s a tenor, not alto; Sanborn never plays tenor. However, its all Sanborn in style. Sanborn developed a style that gave birth to countless “Sanborn clones”. Mostly alto players, but many Pop/Funk tenor players also copped his style. A style that is not notey at all, even minimalist, but very soulful. He credits Hank Crawford and, are you ready?, Stevie Wonder’s harmonica playing for a lot of his vibe. Early Sanborn is my favorite. Very raw sound…..would never work for Bolero 😊

Soprano trombone, sometimes called slide trumpet. Nice tenor player! Is this it?

Hadn’t planned on mentioning the cover art, but now that you mention the topic… Great cover art. Like that of your post, with a vibe very in keeping with the vibe of the music. I love this record. I post it a fraction of the times I listen to it. Outrageously good. Yes, that’s his feet playing bass (pedals)!
