| Jazz for aficionados frogmanalthough I agree with supertweak that "Mysterious Traveler is creatively unique I really prefer the 1st three albums by Weather Report. Although I may agree the tunes on MT had more structure I like the extended pieces on the earlier album... | |
| Jazz for aficionados acman3I liked Tierney Sutton's "Fever" . She can do no wrong as far as I am concerned. http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=ey3Kw6CihEc | |
| Jazz for aficionados prysoRight ! Little Willie John's "Fever" was probably not a national hit maybe just local.Your post is a classic hit and a classic car. Is that a 58 Chevy?maryjo mentioned liking Elvis's "Fever"http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=OSeyfWTLnWg# http://m.y... | |
| Jazz for aficionados http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fever_(Little_Willie_John_song) frogmanEnjoyed Peter's version of "Fever" but I am with pryso in that Peggy Lee's version is best IMHO . pryso- Yes it was Shelly Manne ! here is the proof: link aboveinteresting back... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Some Charles Mingus to welcome your morning(or perhap evening if in a diiferent time zone)http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=WyOlc8BaR0A http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=n4ys-h1d0kY http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=xf2ZRxYehaI | |
| Jazz for aficionados orpheus10I took your post in the element in which it was presented- as a song from a classic movie soundtrack. I enjoyed this interpretation and would make no attempt to classify it's genre. BTW i enjoyed your injection of humour and my vote goes... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Qorpheus10 Mark Murphy had a long career starting in the 50's and he stayed in the Jazz idiom , not venturing into light Jazz or pop. He recorded for Riverside early and then mostly for Muse records. I think he has a powerful , expressive voice , ... | |
| Jazz for aficionados frogmanElla's making the changes is proof that she was a consummate musician !Here's a song by one of my favorite male singers with some scat singing that i like.http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=A9wS1KB6iQ8 another song with a trumpet player I really ... | |
| Jazz for aficionados frogmanI've always felt indifferent to scat singing-like what's the point? But those two cuts you posted changed my mind. Ella uses her voice to improvise just as any instrumentalist.. Especially the second cut- when she is trading back and forth... | |
| Jazz for aficionados http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=f-RVvJ7_Yrk mary_jo & frogmanThe second incarnation of Art Pepper when he came back in 1975 was quite different from when he originally started. I think the lifetime of hard living he had experienced came out in hi... | |
| Jazz for aficionados frogmanyour impressions match mine. Wow was that intro on Roney's live cut ragged. And yes he has copied Miles licks. All jazz players coming up listen to guys already established and copy them ...in the beginning. But most move on and find their... | |
| Jazz for aficionados prysoTalk about 2 drug addicts who both had a second chance on their careers- Frank Morgan & Red Rodney.. Can you elaborate on that story? Was Rodney the only white band member and back in the 40's and 50's in the South he couldn't travel a... | |
| Jazz for aficionados mary_joI remember Dusko Goykovich from a big band he was in from the latye 60's -early 70's. Aptly named tune "Ballad For Miles" as he sounds so much like Miles. It sounds like it could have been recorded by Miles during his Prestige period in the... |
