| Jazz for aficionados orpheus 10I have enjoyed your comments on this issue . I too agree it is fruitless to debate what is or isn't "jazz". I have been listening to jazz for the better part of 4 decades(all types) and have seen it go through many changes, assimilating ... | |
| Jazz for aficionados frogmanThanks I thought I recognized that very distinctive saxophone style."Lenox Avenue Breakdown" . That goes way back. I think that lp is tucked away in my collection . Need to give it a listen. Is that James Newton on the flute? Takes a grea... | |
| Jazz for aficionados pjw & prysoI recommend Nicki Parrott's work on Venus records where she frequently records. Always great sound , especially the Sacds, but they are very pricey.http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=PoXvhXL3xEQ http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=iBNm5FlyJvcpjw... | |
| Jazz for aficionados prysoI listened to acman3's Mose Allison posted cuts and I definitely hear blues and jazz. I was curious who the sax player is on the 3rd cut "Ever Since The World Ended" who comes in at 2:45 . It sounds like Ernie Krivda or Bennie Wallace. | |

| Jazz for aficionados JafantI was curious about your impressions of the new Miles Davis/John Coltrane The Final Tour. How are the solos and what about production/ sound quality. It seems that I have read Coltrane had already left Miles but agreed to stay on for this to... | |
| Jazz for aficionados pjwI saw Stanley Clarke in the 90's at Westbury Music Fair when he was touring with Al Dimeola and Jean- Luc Ponty. Great concert , top shelf talent who interacted well with plenty of solo space for all.Nice article on history of saxophones in Ja... | |
| Jazz for aficionados pjwI second your recommendation of Art Pepper's "Straight Life" autobiography. Very candid & open about his life, warts and all. He WAS a huge drug addict and unfortunately, due to prison and drugs was off the scene for about 15 years. What a... | |
| Jazz for aficionados frogman+1 Seamus BlakeAs you like Brazilian singers have you heard Marta Gomez ?pjw81563On the JC cd's I like the" Live at the Blue Note" best. But it's pricey...$24 on Amazon. May look for it elsewhere.A "newbie" I like:http://m.youtube.com/watc... | |
