| Jazz for aficionados Sometimes it's sweet to put oneself in the hands of a good FM deejay (for me, usually when driving). I'm lucky to be within range of WPFW in DC. A few recent gems:Oliver Nelson Septet, "Stolen Moments"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RbaGDDbpcQ4B... | |
| Jazz for aficionados O10: <<What you misunderstood Keegiam is the fact that I have a hard time listening to Leon because he's no longer with us>>If you had explained this up front we would have understood immediately. It makes no sense to claim someone h... | |
| Jazz for aficionados O10, why would you post an artist you can "barely stand to hear," just because there was some kind of personal interaction in the past?Cut back on the narcissism, please. | |
| Jazz for aficionados frogman, somehow that Thad Jones brings everything together in one piece. Just amazing. | |
| AT-ART9XI Cartridge - Reduced Compliance My SME V is being overhauled and rewired (one length to preamp) by SME Tonearms in Canada. The Owner, Alfred, liked my choice of AT-ARTXA or XI but suggested the Dynavector xx2 Mk ii, which he happens to be able to get at a great price right now.... | |
| Jazz for aficionados O10, we’re also lucky the legendary Sonny Rollins is still with us at 90. 1954 with Monk: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jefG-h0W_ZU1959: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6TDS-s-GQ4I | |
| Jazz for aficionados frogman, thanks for "Inner Urge." My faith in humanity needed restoration. | |
| Jazz for aficionados In the late 90s, I was in London and hooked up with an old friend. "Let's go hear jazz at Pizza Express in Soho" she said. My American superiority complex kicked in, so I scoffed at the concept of decent jazz at such a place. But of course we w... | |
| Jazz for aficionados OK gang, let me say it's tough but rewarding to try to keep up with the music shared here. Lot's of great stuff, but real listening involves time and surrender.I felt like I needed to slow down and go deep tonight, with acman3's Jack Johnson remi... | |

| 1st Album you Ever Owned? +1 on "Abraxas" | |
| Jazz for aficionados acman3, that track woke me out of a long-term stupor. Why have I owned Jack Johnson for so long but never play it any more? Fantastic funk rock. McLaughlin & Miles. Damn. | |
| Jazz for aficionados frogman, thank you for your detailed description. I have printed your post and plan to jot the syncopation down on staff. It's been so many years since I've read music I need to brush up, starting with understanding your explanation of "Antidote... | |
| Jazz for aficionados frogman, we may be on different wavelengths. The piece I was referring to, posted by acman3, is "Antidote" not "Spain."https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WCEUc5pdy_w"Spain" is pure 4/4 and has its roots in the classic "Concerto de Aranjuez."I can't ... | |
| Jazz for aficionados frogman, it definitely settles into 4/4, but the beginning is way over my head time-wise.I did get into Return to Forever way back when but soon stopped putting it on the platter. I think I relegated it to the fusion category, which, while I resp... |
