| Jazz for aficionados Great Miles, Keegiam; and that live clip from acman3 is one of my favorite things on the Tube. SOTA Jazz.One of the nicest recent trio recordings from of my favorite piano players. Some very thoughtful playing:https://youtu.be/EZzAxLtAn0chttps:/... | |
| The Best Live Recordings on Youtube Hiromi Uehara is a phenom! Holy s**t indeed. If you liked that, you may like this as well. Less bravura and (arguably) more depth:https://youtu.be/w-XZu8DBLSs | |
| How do Bang and Olufsen stereo sound? gongli3, B&O gear, while not the best of the best sound wise, will certainly offer sound of more than good enough quality for any music student to appreciate what matters most....the music. Not directly related to music playback equipment, but... | |
| Jazz for aficionados “3D feeling”. Love that description and I believe I understand what you mean, Keegiam. Tony Williams has been my favorite drummer for a long time and Herbie Hancock ....well, genius. As far as I’m concern Miles’ 60’s quuintet, the second Great ... | |

| Too much Yo-Yo Ma? Fantastic suggestions so far. OP, if you consider Yo Yo’s concept “thick and immutable”, try Elisa Weilerstein for a lighter approach and beautiful lyricism. For a very different, intense and romantic concept, Mischa Maisky is worth checking out.E... | |

| Jazz for aficionados Keegiam, funny, I didn’t even know that “Premium” membership entitled one to videos others didn’t have access to. Just three days ago my wife signed me up for “Premium” because she got tired of hearing me complain about having to sit through the... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Well, at least when he’s playing Monk. Monk’s is obviously a pretty bright light for Wynton. As long as he’s playing Monk, I’m good. Re the “chick”:I have no idea who that is. Permanent? No. They have a list of approved subs and a pecking order wi... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Had a bit of a revelation earlier. It’s no secret here that as much as I love Wynton Marsalis’ work as band leader, trumpeter and educator, there has always been something about his Jazz playing (improvising) that seemed a little off to me. The ma... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Pjw, ONE AT A TIME! Gets very confusing otherwise and is the only way to get a handle on what’s doing what.Have fun. | |
| Jazz for aficionados So, it’s not a lie then? Better than “a scraped clothes hanger”? 🤫 | |
| Jazz for aficionados Nah! You don’t have to spend nearly that much. Just give up Starbucks for a year, maybe less; that’s all. Nice clips, btw. Thanks.Hate to break it to you, Re “Jazz”: only one of the two qualifies. I know you knew that, but....WHERE’S THE OUTRAGE?!... | |
| The Absolute Sound vs Pleasing Sound **** However, absolutes are transferable, and yes, there are absolutes. ****NOW you’re getting somewhere. | |
