| Jazz for aficionados Speaking of wealth of riches, more riches. We’ve heard Pres with Oscar Peterson and Pres with Nat Cole. Here he is with another great piano player who has gotten short shrift here, the great Teddy Wilson:https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=tDesCGeGLL4Qu... | |

| Jazz for aficionados Hah! Memories. Great tune. With Duane and a 21 (!) year old Greg Allman. Not at all bad for a bunch of young Southern boys:https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=szdKx9O31A0 | |
| Jazz for aficionados Great clips. Love Betty Carter! Very unusual singer. A favorite record with a favorite piano player who we sadly lost recently. Killer rhythm section:https://m.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLr6i6H4_tzQV5C3cBrcCHqArLJmQBlgy- | |
| Jazz for aficionados If there’s one very important (and, yes, influential....extremely) player who hasn’t gotten enough attention here it has got to be Lester Young:https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=fPHj9uNZOgk&list=PL4ypuAMic-GhO9negHTY3ZNPjMXL6ZQaO&index=2&a... | |

| Jazz for aficionados **** Since this is a musical contest, ****Explains a great deal. 😊 Joke, O-10. | |
| Jazz for aficionados pjw, The Allmans were my favorite rock band all through HS and beyond. Their love of Jazz was one of the most intriguing things in Allman lore and their sound reflected it. Interesting that KOB was a favorite record, but not surprising since it w... | |
| Jazz for aficionados **** How did we get from this, to ’Stellar Regions’. ****Along with “influence”, another concept that you will teach in your Jazz Appreciation 101 course (in English, of course)...”evolution”. | |
| Jazz for aficionados pjw, I figured out why your recording (I have the original lp) doesn’t include “You’ve Changed”. At first I thought that the clip you posted may have been a bootleg and the reason it wasn’t on the record. The answer is that I made an error in th... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Great clips! Thanks. And what a blast from the past! I was there for that date at the Vanguard! I’m showing my age. Had just moved to Fla to go to college and was back in NY for a family wedding and a HS buddy took me to hear Dexter on his bi... | |
| Jazz for aficionados So, Rok, what will you be teaching.....in English? | |
| Jazz for aficionados Great! | |
| Jazz for aficionados True. Amazing how much Django could say with just two fingers. On the other hand (pun) one can say a great deal with just one. I think Django still had the use of that one 😉https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=aZ308aOOX04 |
