Jazz for aficionados I see so many posts, and I have listened to so much fantastic music, that I have yet to comment on.I am quite impressed by musicians who are new to me, and I will give you feedback after a thorough review of their music. | |
Jazz for aficionados Inna, you confused me, and you were confused by the picture on the album cover; Ray Nance is a guy; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ray_NanceNevertheless, you have observed something, very few aficionados are aware of. | |
Jazz for aficionados I'm glad you liked that Rok. There is something special about some hometown artists that I can't put into words; I guess it's because they were born drinking the same Mississippi river water, and eating the same food, that enables them to better ... | |

Jazz for aficionados Rok, which circus are you referring to, be more specific. Are you referring to what happens when people are left without jobs, "means to earn a living"; then the same conditions exist in Chicago, St'. Louis, LA, and all of the other major cities.... | |
Jazz for aficionados Although Miles strays farther than the true intent of "Love For Sale" than Cannonball (no matter what album), he doesn't stray too far. The reason I mention that is because one of my pet peeves is when an artist gives the title of a standard, and... | |
Jazz for aficionados Frogman, Somethin' Else is a jazz album by saxophonist Julian "Cannonball" Adderley, released on Blue Note Records in 1958. Also on the session is trumpeter Miles Davis in one of his handful of recording dates for Blue Note. | |
