Frogman, like I said before, I have no problem with different music posted here, finally even if I dont listen it at the present, man can always learn something new. I wrote about it not long ago, for me and perhaps for some of the others (would l...

Still, we were talking about fusion, so here is one suggestion, not exactly in the style of  the stuff Frogman posts, but maybe some of the 'purist' will like it even more. Chico O' Farrill and Clark Terry on 'Spanish Rice' album from 1966.https:/...

Since there is not much going on here, will use the opportunity to post music and musicians that perhaps deserve more attention.(like usually)Here is one of them, Herb Geller with his sextet, was based in L.A. but he did not play in cool style, mu...

As for 61. or 62. question, its a quite broad subject? Could we narrow it a bit? East or west cost, or bossa maybe? Personal favourits or 'influental' albums? Few ones that I like, out of head.... all known names...for a changehttps://youtu.be/nil...

I am not quite certain, but Ammons, Hawes, Dupree and some other guys were in the prison at the same time, maybe even in the sam prison, and I have read somewhere (think it was Dupree who said it) that his best band was in fact, the prison bend. T...

Nice words, JC. Among all other funny comments, there were a few posts with good music. However, still there are many forgoten ones that deserved to be heard, again. One of them is certainly guitar player Johnny Smith, who started to record since ...

Orpheus, Green is legend and the 'Idle Moments' is a classic album. Somehow I am always reluctant to write about such well known records.Imho we should write more about players and albums that are not so well known, in a hope that that sad fact mi...
