Jazz for aficionados It's astounding, that out of all the great jazz trumpet players, Lee Morgan edges out as number one. | |
Jazz for aficionados Inna, since I don't speak French, I could only go by the picture; why don't you explain it? | |
Jazz for aficionados Alex you presented this album, and I bought it; this album projects the mood and feel of these places (63rd and Cottage Grove, 45th and Calumet, La Salle street) when I was a teenager exploring them.This is the power of music; John Wright project... | |
Jazz for aficionados Alex, jazz is the only music that springs from the heart and soul into the realm of the living where we can hear it. Jazz as you and I know it, is an expression of the emotions, the life and experiences of African Americans in the cities of the U... | |
Jazz for aficionados That was nice Inna, but for the romantic, I prefer Gato; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G0SZ4rE-QJo https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vowcj9DXKbU | |

Jazz for aficionados Today, I've been groovin on "Jimmy Smith" organ, and it's easy for me to imagine being on the set, because in my town, so many house bands are based around the organ.This is one of his grooviest jams. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7YpKG... | |
Jazz for aficionados Since this is a musical contest, and not a beauty contest, Dee Dee wins. I have never heard those two songs sung with more emotion.I know she looks foxier on this album, but I have my eyes closed when I listen; consequently, she always looks foxy ... | |
Jazz for aficionados Don't be sorry Inna, I was just testing your "jazz tolerance". Yusef Lateef and "Sister Mamie" has been one of my favorites for ages. According to me, if that's your opinion of that tune, which incorporates some of the Eastern rhythms you like, ... |
