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.

Rok, not even when I was much younger, I had no illusions of a sort you mention. But, regarding the theme of that video, it is no surprise to me at all to see such things happening, especially after all the things western world did or failed to do (not only in this or previous century) Either the concept of democracy is corrupt or worse, the humankind is. We are surounded with hypocrisy, ignorance and silence on one side and with sheer greed for power and money on other and I am not optimist about possible changes that might solve any of those things https://youtu.be/FU_arNEQ8lM |
@orpheus10 <<According to Keegiam, Freddie "whoever's" solo is too strident.>> No, I said it's TOO STRIDENT FOR ME, and explained that it could be my hyperacusis. FOR ME = MY opinion in MY world, not some kind of official proclamation that should be taken as an insult by the jazz gods. There's a lot of Coltrane that is TOO STRIDENT FOR ME. Oops, am I allowed to say that? O10, it's good to see you back, but you remain one of the most abrasive personalities I've encountered in many years on various forums. It's also nice to know you've never had a senior moment late at night. Let the Freddie gaffe go, please. It's getting really old. |
