| Jazz for aficionados Sometimes when I 'entertain' (jazz music is not considered as entertaiment for the most) the guests who visit me I ve noticed that if I first play them the vocal version of some standard, they become much more aware of that same song which is late... | |
| Jazz for aficionados I think that lyrics for Round midnight are very well suited. That, together with Angel Eyes would be my all time favourits, for certain mood.Today found and ordered few albums that I had on ’pick’ for some time.Oscar Petitford’s ’Manhattan jazz se... | |
| KRELL FPB 400 CX The right answer depends on speakers you use. I' ve had a Krell Evo 302, together with SF Guarneri and at the time thought that anyone who has such or similar speakers, which are in demand for a strong amp should try it. The amount you are talkin... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Speaking about collections, I bet Rok got bigger and better one than these two guys...https://youtu.be/c2dwG3Lr49M...and, Mary, please, no need to get all serious about it. He is a funny guy. He is, really and I mean it without any irony....https:... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Acman, thanks, glad you like it. I have very few jazz albums from 70's, always thought that 'best' time for jazz has been already passed by then, but in fact all those guys are still quite strong. I cant imagine how they felt in those times, proba... | |

| Jazz for aficionados Frogman, saw documentary on tv, from Steinway factory (in lack of better term, as they are made by hand) and aldo the pianos are all made by same people with same material, they sound different, so man can choose one that suits him best. They have... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Keegiam, you are not the only one who thinks that such post is out of the place, but, the Rok has a history of such expressions, its better not to take him serious. If we would react on every such move, this place would soon end up beeing a place ... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Schubert, if you dont mind me (sort of) answering, I would choose Italy, for a country to live. Austria is certainly beautiful as well, but I would say that Italians are litlle bit more relaxed and open toward other people (I should not generalize... | |
| Jazz for aficionados If you have not seen this concert already, you should.Live and in color, so many famous players. The year is apperently 1972. not 1971 as stated. https://youtu.be/fZNC7sZS6qI | |
