| Jazz for aficionados Ghosthouse, as you so appropriately stated, "You can have jazz without soul, but the best jazz got to have soul", and you can hear it. Believe it or not, not everyone can hear it. I think one must have a built in "soul receptor" in order to hear... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Frogman, your "aficionado card" has officially been revoked, also there is a penalty; you have to listen to that music for the rest of your life.Enjoy the music. | |
| Jazz for aficionados I like clarinet where it seems "appropriate" as in the time when it was popular. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HkdCr9HlRE0 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=towtYP6bpBI https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hhk... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Old and new jazz is a fallacy; are you referring to the date it was recorded, or the style, or the artists; it can get confusing; especially when you make that classification.But in order to clarify the allegations; "No I don't like new jazz". I ... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Now is the time for the Frogman to shine, he never met a "Bruhah" that he didn't instantly fall in love with. Unfortunately he has a legitimate reason for not responding to my post on soul; but he picks and chooses to respond to posts like a poli... | |
| Jazz for aficionados There was a time when I bought anything with Miles in the lineup; I also have a lot of "crap" by Miles; old habits die hard.Back in the LP day when you had to buy in order to hear, I bought a lot of "crap"; that's because buying before you listen ... | |
| Jazz for aficionados In regard to Frogman, how many times do I have to tell him, "I do not want to learn squat in regard to making music". As far as show of hands, I ain't got none; I hope that clears that up; but I don't want him to get off his box for my sake.Is th... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Rok, you force me to justify my statement, and that always takes a long story. If you got time to listen, I got time to tell it.I hung out at this high end emporium so much that some of the customers thought I worked there; especially this one cu... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Fourwnds, me and my wife went for a long drive on a beautiful fall day, when the colors were at their peak, with another couple, and they played nothing but Kenny G, all the way there and back. I found his music so relaxing, that I nodded off fou... | |
| Jazz for aficionados My position in music is quite simple, "Everybody is right" because music is so "subjective". With a stance like that, what is there to argue about? | |
| Your "go to" lps for system evaluation I fail to understand what this has to do with music?Shouldn't this thread be under analog? | |
| Jazz for aficionados "Soul", what is it? Some of the most brilliant minds have tried to define it without success. Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel spent his entire life writing about the philosophy of soul; The Phenomenology of Spirit was the name of his most famous bo... | |
| Jazz for aficionados "Spyro Gyra", Morning Dance has been in my collection since it came out; as a matter of fact, I only have it on record.Whether or not it's jazz doesn't really matter; it's a lot better than some current music that is considered jazz.Enjoy the music. | |
| Jazz for aficionados These are some super hip dudes; "The Jazztet" featuring Art Farmer and Benny Golson https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u23Etcb-L9M&list=PLafagIBDy-VK16r59rYQmmTdBJAZAJH8f&index=1The epitome of Cool; https://www.youtube.com/w... | |
| Class "A" sound, as related to Stereophile. That was some very good advice Dave, and I will heed it; I might add to that, keep the tone arm locked down when not in use.I used a Shure tracking force gauge, which might be accurate, but it's awfully clumsy, so I ordered a digital tracking forc... |
