| Useful Information **** I suspect whatever Pelosi does is done in the belief it is best for her constituents ****Seriously? Taken a look at SF lately? | |
| Jazz for aficionados Fascinating comments from the ultimate recidivist, Herbie Hancock. Very erudite and extremely interesting individual, not to mention brilliant musician, talks about “The Ethics Of Jazz”. Lots of great anecdotes, stories and much more about his li... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Schubert, heading up Saturday, day after tomorrow. Good to see you back. Wishing you health and all best. | |
| Jazz for aficionados Boy, that MacBride sure likes to play with noise makers:https://youtu.be/R1iav-4nAy0https://youtu.be/cwn6dgDFJlE | |
| Jazz for aficionados Re the intrepid poster:I just don’t see it that way. He wasn’t dismissing the old stuff at all. For some reason he wasn’t aware of the fact that the new stuff is covered here as well. I would bet that he scanned the first couple of pages of the th... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Rok, interesting question and excellent comment on the possibilities. If you think about it, it is both. If one starts with the premise that everything that a great improviser does is done “on purpose”, which it is, then there’s your answer. Sure,... | |
| Jazz for aficionados O-10, let it go and lighten up, please. Stress is not a good thing; especially now. Humor, on the other hand, is. From my vantage point you, as the OP, should take the high road and engage and inform a newcomer. Personally, I saw nothing parti... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Rok, check this out. Ghosthouse commented on this recently. I posted it a while back. I suspect you overlooked it based on an assumption. We could talk about assumptions; but, hey, what was it that Otis said? 😊https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list... | |

| Jazz for aficionados Thank you both for your responses to MY diatribe. Rok, **** Most of us here use the term as a form of self-mocking. Making fun of ourselves. No one takes it serious. At least I assumed no one did / does. ****News to me and glad to know. As I have ... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Rok, I am not in the mood for bickering, but I am always in the mood for dialogue for the the sake of clarity and hopefully progress in understanding points of view. As I said, I do agree with the general sentiment expressed in cgoodwin’s post: “J... | |
| Jazz for aficionados https://youtu.be/UnPMoAb4y8U....and probably best to be leave others out of your diatribes. Tense time, so I’ll overlook this one 😊 Btw, you really think Corea will be forgotten before McBride (great as he is)...if ever? Not a chance. | |
| Jazz for aficionados ghosthouse, nice clip. Mintzer is one of the most talented musicians around today. Great composer/arranger/ big band leader as well as player. Bass clarinet: For me the bass clarinet, like all instruments really, is most effective when all its uni... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Cgoodwin, stick around and you’ll realize that your concern is unfounded. Personally, I agree with your sentiment 100%, but it really does not apply as current artists, including most of the ones you mention, are and have been well covered. Welc... | |
| Stephen Sondheim / Andrew Loyd Webber - Birthday March22 - Videos Callaway’s singing is as beautiful as her personality.A little overproduced, but Streisand sounds great; and if one is OK with a bit of digititis, great ear candy for the audiophile. Classic Sondheim:https://youtu.be/YZRZj5HWSr0 |
