| Jazz for aficionados @frogman, Thanks for a deeper explanation of Coleman Hawkins and John Coltrane. When I heard Hawkins playing "Body and Soul" on the Jazz series, especially with Wynton Marsalis's introduction, it blew me away. I thought it was absolutely beautifu... | |
| Let's talk music, no genre boundaries Here’s a song from Shelby Lynne, my favorite female country vocalist: https://www.google.com/search?q=shelby+lynn+tallahatchie+bridge+youtube&sca_esv=7bb009e77409c6d9&rlz=1C1CHBF_enUS945US945&sxsrf=AE3TifNiX749Gqxbo4RHyX9_pQrn8U3bNg%3... | |
| Let's talk music, no genre boundaries @bigtwin , Good song. I've heard it done by a number of women but I like this one. I first saw Tom Scott and the L.A. Express at the Troubador in L.A. He was backing up Joni Mitchell. | |
| Let's talk music, no genre boundaries @richardbrand, @mahgister, As a few of you know, I have certain biases regarding music. @mahgister I agree with Neitsche too. He said tragic plays need music behind them. My interest is in religion. I am not religious, but a student of religion ... | |
| Let's talk music, no genre boundaries @mahgister, All of this musical sophistication couldn't have occurred at once. Certain things must have happened first, then others, then others. Early Homos sapiens probably didn't have a concept of time beyond the sun setting and rising. Phases... | |
| Let's talk music, no genre boundaries @stuartk, I like a lot of ideas in the youtube you posted. I think there is no question that music affects our emotions and moods. I have no idea what it means to affect our DNA. Although, I think that since I've begun listening to music all morn... | |
| Let's talk music, no genre boundaries I am posting a Van Morrison song that I wanted to post on the jazz forum, but I knew that others would not consider this song jazz. Yet I listen to it the way I listen to jazz. Not intricate, heady jazz, but something that lifts my spirit. I consi... | |
| Jazz for aficionados @mahgister After a fair amount of study, I believe that art--all art, including cave paintings, music, bodily adornment, was indistinguishable from spiritual practice when Homo Sapiens evolved from previous Homo species (erectus, etc.) For the e... | |
| Jazz for aficionados @mahgister, stuartk, I think what is happening is societies around the world, including the U.S., is terrifying. People get in touch with their bodies for violence. I agree with @mahgister in regards to the use of his word embodiment. Girls and w... | |
| Jazz for aficionados @mahgister, @stuartk, IMHO, art delights the mind and the soul to varying degrees. Critics and Historians can view historical periods through the lens of art. In the eighteenth century, I think writing and music were more geared toward delighting... | |
| Jazz for aficionados @mahgister I think in all the arts, it's a question of having something to say and choosing an art in which to say it. Again, in the Jazz Series, musicians talk about other musicians telling a story with their music. I think in an art like poetr... | |
| Jazz for aficionados @stuartK, Yes, the distinction between soul and virtuosity. On the Jazz series, they talk about Billie Holiday's lack of a strong voice. Her range spanned just a little more than one octave, where other singers might span three octaves and have a... | |
| Jazz for aficionados @stuartk, mahgister, curiousjim, tyray @stuartk Thank you for the list. I will dig into it. @everybody else This three minute recording of Coleman Hawkins playing Body and Soul, according to the Jazz series, is supposed to be the first time a ... | |
| Jazz for aficionados @stuartk, My computer is being fixed and I'm using my wife's. I can't find how to find PMs on here. I'm starting my writing day. If I have time and energy later, I'll poke around some more. But that's why I'm not answering. I like that cut by Ch... | |
