| Jazz for aficionados Great clips. Navarro was definitely one of the all time greats. Except for Dizzy’s high chops, probably an even better trumpet player from an instrumentalist point of view. Dizzy’s equal, but ultimately not, as far as overall influence (died too y... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Nice! | |
| Jazz for aficionados Rok, you couldn’t be more mistaken. An old and tired argument and, as always, ignorance is bliss. Over and out. | |
| Jazz for aficionados Re “Giant Steps” and for anyone interested in understanding not only the tune itself, but why the tune is a milestone in Jazz. Interesting stuff and highly recommended, but only geeks need apply 😊:https://www.vox.com/videos/2018/12/4/18125993/joh... | |
| Saxaphone vs. Trumpet...Which do you prefer? Oh, yeah? Jazz saxophone great Eddie Harris beat you to it 😊. He would sometimes play his creation the reed trumpet; trumpet with saxophone mouthpiece.https://youtu.be/NMmjh4qkEZYHow about the slide saxophone (and more):https://youtu.be/p-b6I1ihh2s | |
| Saxaphone vs. Trumpet...Which do you prefer? +1 Thad Jones. Charles mentions the cornet. Thad Jones often played cornet. He was probably responsible for reintroducing the cornet to jazz while a member of the Count Basie orchestra. The instrument, once very popular, had been practically forgo... | |
| Saxaphone vs. Trumpet...Which do you prefer? +1 Chazro....and I’m a saxophone player. +1 Charles...all in fun.https://www.pinterest.com/pin/385339311863595349/https://youtu.be/2Ykbtg9pGLcBtw, spelled saxOphone. Freudian slip? 😉 | |

| Hear my Cartridges....🎶 Two wonderful cartridges and each prioritizes different aspects of recorded sound. I can definitely understand why some listeners might prefer the Palladian’s spatial boldness and bass power to the Decca’s more organized and “neater” approach to i... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Funny, I’ve been around musicians of just about every persuasion for about fifty years and I have never met any “elevator musicians”....no room for the drums 😊.I won’t comment on someone else’s characterization of a music. It’s not my characteriza... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Mayoradamwest, if you don’t know these records check them out for good examples of Turrentine’s best work. I am not a huge fan of Turrentine’s CTI output either; or, most from CTI for that matter. I do mostly enjoy CTI Turrentine since that fabu... | |
| Hear my Cartridges....🎶 What a great sounding lp! One of my favorites. Wonderful performances. Excellent comments by Dover. I agree completely with his assessments and descriptions; and, frankly, don’t have much to add except perhaps to describe some of what is heard som... | |

| Hear my Cartridges....🎶 And I thought, based on the sequence of posts, that Thuchan’s recommendation of the Century was directed at me ☺️ Silly me. $12,000 !!! C’mon, Halcro we need a shootout between the Century and the Palladian. Better still, between the Century and L... |
