Jazz for aficionados Randy, although I'm the OP, I don't speak for anybody else; in my opinion you would do better to post that on the music forum separately. Only when a recording is really bad will anyone mention it, and that's rare. Enjoy the music. | |
Jazz for aficionados That was a statement of fact that apply's to everyone, not just you. Many reviewers talk about how reviewing the equipment gets in the way of enjoying the music."Subjective"; somehow you are misinterpreting that word; it simply means that when we... | |
Jazz for aficionados Although we've gone back and forth on various issues, each person sees "reality" only from their point of view; therefore whenever the discussion is over, nothing seems to have been gained.For example; Frogman is forever talking about musical tech... | |

Jazz for aficionados I liked the blues when I was in a "blues joint" that smelled like whisky wine and beer, with a lady who was crying on my shoulder cause her old man done left her.In my young years there were more blues bands in St. Louis than you could shake a sti... | |
Jazz for aficionados I don't know why critics of Wynton say one thing and fans hear another; no critic of Wynton ever said he could not play the trumpet, no critic of Wynton ever said he couldn't play jazz; every critic of Wynton said the same thing, including me; he ... | |
Jazz for aficionados Rok, in regard to a life that's fading fast, it can not go too soon for me; the sooner the better. | |
Jazz for aficionados Rok, when I was in the service, I developed a friendship with a guy who liked C & W in the extreme. We were sleeping in cubicles at that time, he was at the opposite end of the barracks, and whenever he wanted to converse, he would turn his m... | |
