Jazz for aficionados Rok, I don't have much "Pops" in my jazz collection because until this thread,I considered him more of an "entertainer". That also goes for some of the other artists you have presented; I'll have to get busy and start adding.It's funny that one o... | |
Jazz for aficionados Dave, you're getting special treatment; I don't know if you know that Frogman is a professional musician, who is also a walking music encyclopedia. Presently I'm working on my "Vinyl play list"; I hope you have that analog to PC down pat. In this... | |
Jazz for aficionados I was listening to Marvin Gaye's, "What's going on" and thought about when I was partying in Detroit in the mid 60's, when it was the richest city in the world in per capita income. Although at that time, I most certainly did not have time for st... | |
Jazz for aficionados Dave, I thank you for your compassionate stance, but I'm beginning to see the other side.We like to know your musical taste, that way we can recommend what you like best in jazz. Jazz is incorporated into every genre under the sun, consequently, ... | |
Jazz for aficionados Dave, you must be forewarned, that from time to time, I have these brain-strokes and get off thread. I know all the other aficionados are sweating bullets right now, and saying to themselves, "Please, not now, you might run him off".Some things a... | |
Jazz for aficionados Rok, I must have that CD; he covers a lot of territory in regard to "Genre", or is "Nawlins" a Genre unto itself that covers many different Genre?Enjoy the music. | |
Jazz for aficionados Good morning Aficionados, we have a new member to this thread, "Dave - dlcockrum"; who is a very sharp audiophile that has personally helped me to upgrade my rig substantially.If I cover ground we've already covered, it will be to bring Dave's col... | |
Jazz for aficionados James Booker is fantastic, and us soul survivors will testify to that fact; you got to love "Nawlins". | |
Jazz for aficionados Rok, for me, that's universal, ageless music, it never gets old, and also has good recording quality; that puts it over the top.There was another piece of music that fit in that category, and we both liked the way they danced, but I can't remember... | |
Jazz for aficionados Without a doubt, that would have been better with a southern choir; everything goes better with biscuits, butter and molasses. Which reminds me of a joke, "How can I have Mo-lasses, when I aint had No-lasses"?Somehow, sophisticated Northern soul... | |
Jazz for aficionados Rok, anything and everything "Nawlins" you got it, and if you ain't, you gonna git it; I know my aficionados.Enjoy the music. | |
Jazz for aficionados Dave, having excellent taste is an important component for the acquisition of a boss jazz collection. Not many newcomers would have selected "Soul Brothers" in the beginning stage of getting into jazz. You couldn't have picked a better time; tha... | |
Jazz for aficionados I'm continuing with Stereophile's list of R2D4. Buddy Collette played sax, clarinet and flute; I primarily knew him for his work on flute. He grew up with Mingus in LA, but I can't think of any musical similarities between the two.Buddy Collette... | |
Jazz for aficionados Something old has been at the top of my list for quite some time. Something new, Brad Mehldau - "Blues and Ballads" is sure sounding good. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ssgnCeomQFMThanks for the tip Dave. | |
Jazz for aficionados I had the exact same opinion about the "Takiyaki orchestra", after wanting to make fun of it, I liked it; as a matter of fact, it made me recall Martin Denny, who I liked a long time ago.As you stated, "Three winners from Stereophile".Enjoy the music |
