| Jazz for aficionados Quotes on Wynton Marsalis are the most misunderstood in the world because they always come out as Wynton can't blow the trumpet. No one, not even Miles ever said that; what they said was; when you give Wynton a blank sheet of paper, he can't put ... | |
| Jazz for aficionados That was certainly not Stanley's best, but it had a few good cuts, and once I'm through down loading, the TT goes back in "mothballs"; no more vinyl, only what's in the PC Library.As far as the title; there was a "love and lost" quality to the mus... | |
| Jazz for aficionados It's for sure that "Lou" was our favorite male vocalist; I had gotten so use to his voice that it seemed like an old friend was singing to me, plus I could relate to the songs he sang; "Street of Dreams", is one of them.This place was my last "han... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Lou Rawls seems like an old friend because he sings about the Chicago I knew as a teenager; girls, girls, and more girls, pretty girls up and down that long Walgreen soda fountain counter. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QGuwgHIHnZYThere ... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Rok, if you're a "jazz aficionado", as we are, how could he appeal to you if you never saw him entertain live. I most certainly was not impressed by the tickets; after all Sammy does not play the drums, he does not blow tenor, nor does he blow tr... | |
| Jazz for aficionados I saw this on "you tube" and it brought me back to the time I saw "Sammy".I had never been a fan of "Sammy", like being a fan of "Bird", or Miles, or any of the other jazz musicians. My fiance bought some tickets, and told me we were going to... | |

| Jazz for aficionados Modern jazz is a style of jazz characterized by fast tempo, instrumental virtuosity, and improvisation based on the combination of harmonic structure and melody. This style of jazz ultimately became synonymous with bebop, as either category reache... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Frogman, I am positive you could put that in the "Guinness World Book of Records"; the only "jazz musician" who has ever been involved in probably 30 plus performances of Bolero over the years.I don't believe Wynton Marsalis could even come close. | |
| Jazz for aficionados "The Penguin Guide To Jazz" numbers "Destiny's Dance" among the core collection which jazz fans should possess; and I thought I had them all. Better late than never.Chico Freeman - tenor saxophone, bass clarinetWynton Marsalis - trumpet (tracks 1... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Now I'm back to the music, and I promise that I'll review all music that has been submitted, which is quite a backlog. | |
| Jazz for aficionados Rok, personally I don't play that "Liberal", "Conservative" game; is the guy honest or dishonest. If the conservatives are my supposed enemies, I would much prefer an honest conservative to a dishonest Liberal; that name tag game is foolish. | |
| Jazz for aficionados Those men worked in factories in order to send their kids to college, so that they would not have to work in factories;Time magazine named Moore one of the world's 100 most influential people.Sounds like Mike's old man knew what he was doing.The p... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Rok, I don't begrudge the good life you have lived thanks to "Sam", and the good life you're living now. You didn't even have to make a dental appointment, you were called when it was time.All those years, as well as these years prevented you fro... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Rok, I think you should see Michael Moore's movie where he tells how good he lived as a child on the salary his father earned working in a factory. Do you remember when the manipulated price of gasoline was $4.00 a gallon; what do you think that ... |
