| Jazz for aficionados On the heels of the Yamamoto/Peacock recording, I noticed a link to pianist Eitetsu Hayashi's version of "Bolero," live, 1999.Maybe the most intense duet I've ever seen. Drums and keyboards in spades. Yikes. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lvyH... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Lovely, mysterious, beautiful, haunting & sometimes cookin' - even at 50 years old.From Japan with Gary Peacock, recorded in 1970. Special kudos to pianist Masabumi Kikuchi, and Hozan's flute is as mesmerizing as Yusef Lateef.Hozan Yamamoto:... | |
| Jazz for aficionados YT delivered a link to this wonderful Chet Baker/Paul Desmond compilation. Both deliver their sumptuous tone for almost an hour.Note some of the sidemen: Ron Carter (all), Tony Williams (3 tracks), Kenny Barron (3 tracks). On the downside, Bob J... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Rok, with this Hampton Hawes set, you've outdone yourself again. More budgeting for record purchases. | |
| For all you Vinyl lovers! Enjoyable post Tony. Nail on the head.My hunch as to why I find vinyl so natural and smooth is that, fortunately, many years ago, someone invented the technology to turn sound into a physical groove on a "record" (they didn't even use vinyl until... | |
| For all you Vinyl lovers! @mrpgray Only your 2nd post, cool - I agree 100%. Intense listening to high-end music reproduction is not a hobby many share. I've had very few friends that are really into it. For me it's a thrilling experience I usually enjoy alone. That's f... | |
| compliance 1.25 to 1.5 sounds light to me. What cartridge is it, and what is the recommended tracking force? | |
| Jazz for aficionados The plot thickens. It should be no surprise the influence I heard in "Speed Trap" is Monk. Now I learn Barron had a group with Charlie Rouse in the 80's. Thanks for the article link Frogman. JFA has made me feel like a music school student the... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Nice Barron tracks, thanks Frogman. When I began listening the "Speed Trap," it seemed unmistakable that I was hearing the influence of one of the greats he probably revered as he was coming up. Then the second track - same effect, but now I was... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Acman, wonderful clip, thanks. | |
| Jazz for aficionados Frogman, two of my most cherished pieces by that unmatched Miles Davis quintet. Significant Wayne Shorter influence, as it should be. Herbie displays his genius as well."Nefertiti"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Iu0IfC_IUaA"Pinnochio"https://www... | |
| Jazz for aficionados This is for Rok, who I think is a fan of Carlos Santana. Over the last 48 years, I may have played this more than "Abraxas."Santana: "Caravanserai" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QS67o4npBuE | |
| Jazz for aficionados ghosthouse, I checked out this version of "Blues for Tony." Nice groove - very intense piece. I found the drummer and keyboard player more enjoyable than Holdsworth. Holdsworth strikes me the same way Di Meola does - lightning fast, technically... | |
| Jazz for aficionados This a compilation of performances by the Tony Williams quintet 1986-1991. It is 3 hours long, and I'm only a half hour in, but Herbie Hancock is blowing me away.For me Tony Williams was the most musical drummer ever. I know that's vague, but he... |
