Yes, Frogman is absolutely correct. What I was calling the abyss, was where Coltrane wanted to go. He had not lost his way, but was finding it.

If my memory serves me, the problem started when Coltrane started bringing in other players. Mccoy left 1st and then Elven Jones left shortly after when Coltrane started using Rashid Ali, as a second drummer. One report on Wiki, said McCoy could n...

Frogman, In the whirlwind of sounds of the quartet and the quintet [ Sanders], I always could find " grounding" in the chords Tyner was playing. I think a player like Calderazzo would have been overwhelmed in that sound, but McCoy could always be ... 
Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC?

When I was listening to the Branford Marsalis Quartet playing A love Supreme, I thought it interesting that Joey Calderazzo was the most different in comparison to his counterpart in the Coltrane Quartet, McCoy Tyner. Very different players, but C...

I agree with all said above. I have never read a negative report on the TRANS-FI.You can tweek as much as your OCD urges need. I use 2 of Tomahawks with silver leads to phono amp, to make changes faster. Can be dialed in in 15 minutes. Take a look...

Apologies O-10, if I misinterpreted your 8/2 post. Sometimes the Internet is hard to get, at least for me. Your latter post regarding a certain sameness to new music, got me to thinking. In some ways I agree and others I disagree. I will try to so...

Rok, You were adding the link till around 7/30 so you probably are just forgetting to click on "markup tags" below the posting box before posting links.

O-10, I understand your stance. I think it all comes down to vocabulary. You want to hear the jazz language you love, but it constantly is changing. If you miss or ignore a generation the language gets further and further away from what you want t...

Hey Rok, if you hit the markup tag, before adding the clips, they will be linked, and lazy people like myself will be more inclined to listen.Seems like the pot calling the kettle black, as much as I mess up, but it would make it easier.
