Acman, liked the last Tequilla 'shot' too.Make me think of another one...its not jazz, but its fine...https://youtu.be/Uedw8ErZ3akFrogman, well written post. Still, one sentence made me want to add the thought....It is when you mentioned the ' co... 
Who listens primarily to Redbook CD?
Jazz is the music that I like and since there is no chance man could find all editions that wants on new lp's (even if one could afford it), Rbcd format provides the biggest choice.There is also a matter of owning (holding it) the actual product.....

Stofth, if you follow this thread, I guess you could see by now that here, despite all 'arguing' there is no such attitude towards other people (who are perhaps listening to some 'different', meaning other than jazz, kind of music.Except that we c...

Sfoth, would you mind to further elaborate? What would be a musical elitist, in your opinion? Do you consider all music to be of 'equal worth'?Do you believe that perhaps music can not be called as 'good' or 'bad' ?I do not argue that anybody can ... 
DCS Puccini internal wire 'upgrade'
Our local dealer hosted the presentation of DCS and the guy came from factory to talk about it. In some informal conversation, he said, that basically, they can 'tailor' the sound via software how they please, or how the trends or market demands i...

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 ...

According to him, yes...what ever that might mean....

Is all this really necessary?Just because somebody has a different opinion, feeling or appreciation?Even more, when all the talks is in fact about jazz....

Regarding 'soul'....Orpheus, it seems that you are following that old moto ’who ever is not with me, is against me’.Personally, my perspective about music in general or about other people’s choices is little bit wider than my own musical taste.Wit...

Went to cinema last night, saw 'Miles ahead'. Not recommended.But, it seems that 'we' are going in circles here, with all that 'new' vs 'old' jazz, with or without 'soul'.Just wanted to say, that, looking at the not so good movie, one must try to ...

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...

Frogman, for sure, when I wish to listen some gentle or subtle trumpet playing Dizzy is not my first (or second) pick and I agree with you on that matter. All the players you have mentioned had more to say on that subject.. But it seems to me that...
