Jazz for aficionados Ghosthouse, listen to a guy playing trumpet on that John Mayall’s album.It is Blue Mitchell, he ’comes’ from this (jazz) side of forum...But if you like that kind music (blues, with some great playing too), here is another album that you may find ... | |

Jazz for aficionados Frogman, I really appreciate your 'inside' comments, there is no reason why I should not believe you. It would be interesting if somebody could come up with some material where perhaps Dizzy was faced with question or comment about it, meaning why... | |

Jazz for aficionados By the time this album was recorded,in 1980. they all have passed their prime, but none the less, its a still a nice record to hear and have.Dizzy, Terry, Hubbard on 'The trumpet summit meets Oscar Peterson big four'https://youtu.be/RvPM2zsSglAmor... | |

Jazz for aficionados The context in which Art Blakey is mentioned in that article is quite bad, if that is true, he seemed to be a very bad person. Wonder if anybody else read somethinhg about it ? | |

Jazz for aficionados I found that article to be quite informative, saw nothing that could be considered as lie or perhaps someone's agenda?Correct me if I am wrong?Just a thought, I believe that nobody thinks that 'bop' or any other art form 'came out of the blue' ?Or... |
