| Jazz for aficionados ...... tt “scratching“ over Chet Baker records. Gets the chicks every time!(All in good fun. Sorry, Alex....she made me do it) | |
| Jazz for aficionados Tasteful Jazz aficionado by day; secret life as DJ Ax by night:https://youtu.be/YCZqBBVs-kw | |
| Jazz is not Blues and Blues is not Jazz....... “Difficult” is not an easy thing to define; it’s all more complicated and subtle than that. The best Jazz players are not always the best Blues players. In fact, they seldom are. What that does that tell you about “difficulty”? | |
| Jazz is not Blues and Blues is not Jazz....... I’m actually confused about what exactly the issue is. First it seemed that your objection was to the way some blur the lines when naming the various genres. Not sure how that has anything to do with liking or not liking certain artists or certain... | |
| Jazz is not Blues and Blues is not Jazz....... With respect, I think some of you are missing the point. If you listen to the best Jazz radio stations (WBGO, Newark, NJ for example) they play a great deal of Blues. I’m not sure what exactly the OP means by “some internet sites” being offenders,... | |

| Need help with audio forensics Sounds like my dishwasher; and yet another example of collateral damage from the lockdown. | |
| the sound of massed violins in classical orchestral recordings I too have participated in DG recordings and concur with terraplane8bob’s accounts of DG micing technique; multi-micing galore and placement way too close up to be able to capture a realistic sense of instrumental timbre and texture was my experie... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Glad you liked them, pjw. Probably my favorite Cannonball solo with him as a sideman. Beautifully melodic. Also, notice how Miles picks up where Cannonball leaves off. He starts his solo with the same lick that Cannonball ends with and builds on t... | |
