| Jazz for aficionados Final answer, O-10? At :52 it’s Hank Mobley that is playing? | |
| Jazz for aficionados Let’s keep the games going. This one a little different.As we all know, it has been established and declared by a well known jazz authority that there is only one single drum solo in all of jazz recorded history that is not boring 😊. Before we get... | |
| Jazz for aficionados **** if I put that record on, I would still say it was Monk, and I bet in a blind test, that you, Frogman the musician would say the same thing. ****O-10, I hope you don’t bet too much 😉; I doubt I would confuse Horace Silver for Monk. HOWEVER!, ... | |
| Jazz for aficionados C’mon O-10, no need to get defensive and no technical game playing here. You said "fewest notes"; no? That's technical; no? Now, are you saying most aficionados won’t recognize "Naima"? It’s one of Trane’s best known. Seems to me that feeling ba... | |
| Jazz for aficionados I posted this a while ago. One of my very favorite recent albums by a vocalist:http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLeJtV5enKtBtEPX3MOI0rQvE6fxRBUfiK | |
| Jazz for aficionados Interesting game, O-10; and potentially a lot of fun. The criteria are a little vague, however. You state:*** This is about the fewest notes in jazz that have said the most.***This is something that usually refers to a player’s improvisation. U... | |
| Classical Music for Aficionados Many wonderful recommendations; thanks to all. I would like to recommend the music of some less known composers and some unusual works. A very broad historical perspective can be very rewarding and puts the music in better context, imo. The compos... | |
| Jazz for aficionados “Lyrical” is the perfect way to describe Morello’s playing. That clip of “Castilian Drums” is fantastic, pryso and makes the case beautifully. Wonderful drummer with a beautiful ease to his playing. He never banged on the drums nor forced the r... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Nice Frisell clips all; thanks. Love Bill Frisell; one of the most ecclectic jazz musicians today. We have discussed musicians’ “tone” a few times and Frisell has one of the most, perhaps the most, distinctive tone of all jazz guitar players who... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Audra McDonald is a fantastic singer. Like you say, fantastic voice and so effortless; classically trained and flawless in many ways. I love her singing and she definitely qualifies for diva status....cabaret/Broadway diva that is and probably t... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Glad about that, O-10. 😉 | |

| Jazz for aficionados https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=A3Y4X727s_chttps://m.youtube.com/watch?v=_w1fE0MawZ0Would love to to get the backstory to this title. O-10, since you are our resident African-Eastern-Jazz connoisseur, what is your guess? 🤔https://m.youtube.com/wat... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Nice clips, O-10.More record release mystery/confusion. I have to assume that there are contractual issues by way of transfer of ownership of the masters that allows this sort of thing; or, perhaps in our age of streaming, simple hanky-panky that ... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Great clip! I first heard Sahib Shihab on this record from the great Phil Woods which features his very formidable composing/arranging skills:https://m.youtube.com/watch?list=PL55774CEA75D0E052&v=8_ILn8GDVts |
