| Jazz for aficionados Tablejockey, I appreciate your honesty; when I strike out, let me know it. Nobody was pleased by my "Rubiyat" post and it wasn't new to anyone.(Thinking out loud), trying for a new direction, I will not go for the best. Maybe good stuff by the b... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Frogman, I was just thinking what you posted; Alex posts those forgotten musicians, while I have been posting the best, which any aficionado should already have in his collection. But that was for the benefit of people viewing this thread who wer... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Tablejockey, the name didn't ring a bell, but I like what I'm hearing on this album. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tlb54WO_PhA&t=22sI just down loaded an LP that's only on LP. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0kxuAZictJ4 htt... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Steve Kahn is a name I've heard before; I'm sure he's on some of my records, not classic jazz for sure.Tablejockey, when I hear a relatively new name that sounds interesting, I like to follow it up and see what else he has that we might like. Whe... | |
| Jazz for aficionados I'm sure LA still has a thriving jazz scene. St. Louis is "Style and profile", if you want to go to a swanky club to see and be seen we have them. Although the music is right up to date, apparently I'm not, because I could live without it.After ... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Your quite welcome Tablejockey; although I know one aficionado who's saying "I heard that one before". (smile) It's even a mystery to me as to why I don't have Grant Green LP's, especially since there were no CD's back then, but as we speak, I'm l... | |

| Jazz for aficionados You are quite welcome Tablejockey.Since we are discussing two guitarists, let me throw in another "jazz guitarist" to put what I know into perspective. Before Grant Green went to "Blue Note", he was on the St. Louis local scene. The place where ... | |
| Jazz for aficionados "Smooth Jazz", not smooth jazz, George Benson is one cool dude; he ain't no Kenny G.. There is a reason this thread is named "Jazz for Aficionados", and you just hit upon it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ox1Bu1HECQEEnjoy the music. | |
| Jazz for aficionados Any day is a good day for new "Aficionados", but Fathers Day is better than most for me; it's a day where I have confirmed an especially important friendship, the one with my son, who gave me an especially funny card that I will share with you, bu... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Pryso, I select a "play list" from my "hard drive" and listen to that; almost my entire collection is on the computer drive.Occasionally I tune in to FM jazz. We listen to the same time period; that's because we started listening to jazz at about... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Schubert, there will always be new musicians blowing different tunes; just not the ones we like.Tablejockey, do you get separate albums by those guys, or just listen to them more intently on the albums they're already on? | |
| Jazz for aficionados Once upon a time I had to live where everything was happening, but now I live where you can hear the grass grow, and I like it.I have tried streaming jazz stations online and enjoyed the wide variety.When it comes to music, I'm mostly into "classi... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Tablejockey, you should count yourself blessed to appreciate the music of "Billy Holiday"; not everyone can, she puts her heart and soul on display.Some people THINK this music we love is "objectively good", but it's not; some hear it, and some do... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Time is a limited commodity in this hobby. One has to focus on how to best spend it for their maximum enjoyment.Now that I have perfected the archiving process, each minute detail is presented, and I have to do everything all over again after I m... |
