| Jazz for aficionados Rok, that is one of the best jazz albums ever recorded, and I recommend that any aficionado who doesn't have it, get it. | |
| Jazz for aficionados Pjw, thanks for the compliments, I intend to be around for awhile; especially when there are aficionados like you who make excellent posts and communicate well.Now I'm going to pipe Herbie Hancock to the big rig and listen. | |
| Jazz for aficionados Rok, it's funny that you should ask questions that have crossed my mind. I never cared for the song until I heard Lorez sing it; she adds a lot of sexy innuendo.Picture this "stone fox" looking out the window at knee deep snow, so she fly's south... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Glad you told me about that "Rising Sun" thing.Dee Dee's live albums are so much different from her studio albums, I can see why you prefer them.Neither one of us are currently into the best known Diva's; I'm into Lorez Alexandria, I've got three ... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Dee Dee's Feathers is on order; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FjGWENSUCakI get two in one; I like both. | |
| Jazz for aficionados Dee Dee's got style; as I have gathered from your posts. When I hear her on my playlist it's almost like hearing a different artist; she's less stylish.It's not that I don't like her more stylish recordings, I just don't have them; which is somet... | |
| Jazz for aficionados I was looking for a Carmen CD, and only found LP's; I don't know the significance of that. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GYRrcCjLiGA&list=PLvxWibFr0wiJPqeBD_Jo3OrX4gXyMfxMOI have all the LP's on my play-list so they pose no problem... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Rok, as much as I like Carmen, that's my least favorite by her. While I liked the music, I don't think Monks music is too conducive to vocals, plus, Carmen was long in the tooth by that time, but we all have to make a living.The biggest problem i... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Pjw, that was interesting and informative stuff about the "Prez and the "Hawk"; I didn't know any of it. In my opinion they're equal, but that's in the context of the music they're playing.Keep those informative articles coming. | |
| Jazz for aficionados I have just re-discovered an old friend; it was just like running into an old friend when I heard Harold Land on "Invitation" after not hearing him on anything new for many years.This tune is off his album "A lazy Afternoon", and every cut is boss... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Rok, that's been my favorite Frank Sinatra tune for ages; I have that CD.For my part they can use scratchy records for frisbys.Have a nice evening. | |
| Jazz for aficionados Gerry mulligan is someone that we haven't focused on much; he was just the opposite of Pepper Adams on Baritone; he was cool while Pepper was hot, and he was from the West Coast, while Pepper Adams was East Coast. (this is jazz wise) https:... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Rok, I don't care how good the music is, I can't handle bad recordings, I'll pass on that one.That first track "The Man I Love" isn't recorded too well.I know you have "The Blues"; it's nice."Willow Weep For Me" is so unusual; I can't count the ti... | |

| Jazz for aficionados Mary Lou Williams was friend, mentor, and teacher to Thelonious Monk, Charlie Parker, Miles Davis, Tadd Dameron, Bud Powell, and Dizzy Gillespie; that covers a lot of territory.I was very late to her party because I thought she was "old fashioned"... |
