Rok, the people who fought the civil rights movement are unknown, old and tired, plus only younger people benefited who couldn't care less about those who didn't benefit.Presently everyone is for number one, and the only movement is straight down ...

This is one of my favorite soundtracks, "Cat People"; it's a movie about people who turn into big black panthers who will eat you up.        https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nCIym5Ovu3Y&list=PL3YPwDXT3Pk34CpOnvEJcsQEfccEyt4onEnjoy the music.

Rok, I was with Nina from the beginning of her musical career, and I watched her grow as a person when she became deeply involved in civil rights. Her "real" life was certainly worth a movie, but from what I can gather, this current movie is not ...

Although they "never" succeed, I applaud their valiant efforts. Nina Simone is the subject of a movie (I happen to be istening to her at the moment) that I'm looking forward to seeing. You would be astounded at how interesting a jazz musician's l...

Rok, acting-imitating, Jamie Fox-Ray Charles, is in a "phase-loc-loop" going nowhere fast. I suggest you pick out a jazz move for us to look at and review; you have a long list to choose from.Enjoy the music.

Frogman, I had forgotten about that one; from an acting point of view, I don't think it will ever be beat. Like you said "Jamie Foxx's portrayal of "Ray" is incredible". That movie was fantastic from beginning to end; Ray Charles, like all other...

Frogman, according to "Aficionados", Dexter Gordon puts this movies over the top by simply being himself, without acting; in addition to a fantastic jazz track that was sufficient for two records, plus the musicians were the greatest.While a top a...

The greatest jazz movie that's ever been made is "Round Midnight", starring "Dexter Gordon". Not only is this the greatest jazz movie that's ever been made, it's probably the greatest jazz movie that ever will be made, along with the greatest sou...

"Christine" had the best soundtrack ever, for anybody who can remember sitting in the back seat with a "Little Bitty Pretty One" or pledging your love to the girl of your dreams.My uncle had a brand new 58 Fury like "Christine" that my cousin drov...

Acman, I clicked on that link three times before I realized what was happening. That's what I do when I get bored and no one is responding; maybe the next time I'll change to "hillbilly" just to see if anyone is out there.In response to the movie...

Frogman, that was an unforgettable movie, and I was shooting pool at that time; unfortunately, I was not the hustler, but the one who got hustled. The soundtrack was awesome.Charlie Chaplins speech was the greatest ever made, but also one that wi...

Apparently we have ran out of jazz movie soundtracks. Since I believe we can walk and chew gum at the same time, let's go with "jazz" soundtracks, and any jazz that comes to mind.Although I can't play any LP's at the moment, since I discovered on...

This ain't jazz, but it's a soundtrack that's "Bad To The Bone" can you dig it? Here she is, "Christine", and she is bad to the bone.      https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4FDq-PBlc9A&list=PLJ3mgaOyNH5lELCtCARlQB-9Ow9J7nV4SEnjoy the music.
