| Jazz for aficionados New never before released Art Blakey record !! Not the best I’ve heard this band sound and some of the material was later recorded live, but definitely worthy. https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLEz_mLoNZMeTSML-J8UbHoJM2wuz7XQaJ | |
| Jazz for aficionados **** just a statement of fact. ****You certainly have your opinions, but you don’t know what you’re talking about. Speaking of songs, I guess that song was wrong; time does NOT heal everything. I’m done jousting. | |
| Jazz for aficionados You should see my blackberry bushes and Black-eyed Suzies (am I allowed to say that?), Mary-jo! Looking great. New pear trees, not so much. Btw, why are we talking about the Grammy’s anyway? It’s not news that there has always been corruption. Sam... | |
| Jazz for aficionados ................ rrrrrright 🤪 | |
| Jazz for aficionados Man does not live by R&B alone. Gorgeous singing by any standard:https://youtu.be/RRKP-qeJvVUhttps://youtu.be/eQ98YTcX7OM | |
| Jazz for aficionados **** what I mean by New York-ish. ****That may be what you mean, but your association to NY is extremely flawed. The Grammys, if you want to attach any kind of general sensibility to it, is an LA thing. **** *I can assure you, you will not hear El... | |
| Jazz for aficionados So, Betty Carter AND Nancy Wilson are “New York-ish”. I can’t think of two more different singers. What does “New York-ish” mean to you? | |
| Jazz for aficionados **** you realize you are condemning most of Jazz music. Think of all the standards that have been done a billion times. Autumn leaves? Are you saying once Miles did it, Peterson, Harris, Jamal, et al. were a waste of time? And what about the folks... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Lundy singing standards. Still sounds like no one else.https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=OLAK5uy_lYbaMUfX92G1jhQAMm9hCD3KWSGKPiBvE | |
| Jazz for aficionados **** The songs Lundy sings tend to sound a little too ’New York-ish’ for my taste.****“New York-ish“? Nah. That’s your preference for an older sensibility. Your taste. Nothing to do with NY. She’s from the South. Now, in a way you hit the nail on ... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Lundy was an original more than 32 years ago (I went to school with her). I just don’t hear it in Thurman. I guess my point is to ask why Thurman is getting all the attention and backing at this early point in her career. I would have bought (and... | |
| Jazz for aficionados I posted this singer a while back. Very talented and original voice who writes most of her material; and very interesting material at that. Great voice and when I listen to her I don’t find myself thinking: “oh, that sounds like Ella, or Sarah, or... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Thurman:I think she needs more than a little time. Always good to see a young artist reaching for the stars and to see a lot of support ($) from the powers that be. And she sure is getting the support....lots of it....and for a variety of reasons.... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Uber, I totally get feeling the need to limit one’s involvement with the Internet. It’s a struggle for me in some ways. But, YouTube is unbelievable. So much great stuff on there. The best is not available anywhere else. | |
| VPI HW-19 or VPI Traveler Congrats and enjoy it. Very nice table. Make sure the bearing is well and freshly oiled, and properly so. Don’t use lithium grease as was in vogue at one time. Good old Mobil 1 sounded best to me and I tried just about everything. I found it to be... |
