| Jazz for aficionados When I saw Ahmad live in Chicago, he was working with a guy on steel drums. Here's "Poinciana", but with steel drums, it's a lot different.That's the thing about Ahmad; he can get so many different sounds out of the same tune, that it's new all o... | |
| Jazz for aficionados As I have stated a number of times before; "you tube" enables us to get all the music we missed; I thought I had everything recorded by Yusef Lateef in this time period, but I don't have this particular record. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Rok, I was just thinking, and I want an honest answer to this question; have you ever heard any better jazz in your life, than you have since I started this thread?Enjoy the music. | |
| Jazz for aficionados Rok, you are one of the chief deciders on this thread; why didn't you object to Jamal before I got started. Frogman posted a list to chose from, and I mentioned that I was tired of horns. No decision had been made at that time; you could have ch... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Welcome, rpeluso; if you are not an aficionado, you're at the right place to become one and enjoy good jazz in the process. If you are an aficionado, we welcome you're best contributions. Simply find them on "you tube", and post them here.Enjoy ... | |
| Jazz for aficionados There are many reasons why this thread has lasted so long: one of them is because I have posted some of the best jazz many have ever heard; that's why the view is so high as compared to postings; another is the unwavering support by Roc, Frogman,... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Acman, I'm following through on closing that big space in my collection that's missing Ahmad Jamal. I've got "'Blue Moon" ordered.I read Ahmad's booking schedule, and it included Tokyo, Antwerp, Marciac France, Vannes France, Marseille, Bangalore... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Officially the Ahmad Jamal review is over; Acman, and me simply realized we have an "Ahmad Jamal" gap in our collections that needs filling in. Feel free to post whatever you like, and we'll review it.Enjoy the music. | |
| Jazz for aficionados Acman, I have fewer of Ahmads albums than any other major jazz artist, if I only reviewed what I have in my collection, we would have been through, but the object of this thread is to add new music, and it has functioned quite well for me.Since I ... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Acman, that is so beautiful! Believe it or not, I have met a number of sax players whose last name was coleman; no not that one, he's older, they were younger; just a strange coincident.Ahmad was really digging that sax, I noted the expression on... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Rok, that was 24 Feb 13; that was over 3 years ago, I ran through my collection of "Jazz" a little while ago.This is the only thorough way to go, and not miss any winners.The last time anybody posted was Thursday; we could have been through with A... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Acman, initially some music was on 'you tube' without the artists permission, and that music was taken down, but after the artists discovered, with, or without their permission, it was beneficial to them, because the artists have so many records t... | |
| Vintage Dual 1228 Turntable : worth to upgrade cartridge ? Yogiboy,That Shure M97XE looks exactly like my V15; I think they just changed the name. That brush is highly functional; it enables you to track warped records, and it also prevents "dust bunnies", I'm sure that would work perfectly on a Dual TT.E... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Since I don't have any of the records in my collection that are waiting to be reviewed, this concludes my review of Mr. Ahmad Jamal. I wouldn't want to do anything that went against the sentiments of my fellow aficionados.Enjoy the music. | |
| Jazz for aficionados Rok, why are you only posting the albums in your collection. "You Tube" is like a library of music that they want everybody to post.In the beginning, some artists objected when their records were posted without their permission, but after it was ... |
