| Jazz for aficionados Frogman;Let me repeat, "I still appreciate your musical wisdom, for those like Rok, and Acman who benefit from it".That was my post on 04-02-2016 7:11pm.This was Rok's post immediately following that post. We all know that you do not want to know... | |
| Jazz for aficionados The reason that tune by Silver and Harris is almost unknown, is because it in no ways compares with their best works. There are many yardsticks by which a jazz musician is judged and Blue Mitchell doesn't measure up to Donald Byrd, in that solo, o... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Frogman, you consider the version headed by Silver better than the "Jazz Messenger's"" on "Nica's Dream"? I'm still trying to pick up Art Blakey's sloppy drumming that makes the messengers version of "Nica's Dream" sound sleepy. Maybe you could... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Frogman, the yodeling is a Leon Thomas signature thing. The only other yodeling I ever recall before him was that cowboy thing, and there certainly isn't any semblance between the two. Although I recall Rok making the same comment, I like it.Whe... | |
| Jazz for aficionados In regard to "Senor Blues", when I said *he expands this tune on this date, like nowhere else,****; I was referring to his piano solo beginning at 4:10, and going all the way to the end, when he was backing Blue Mitchell. The one at Newport wasn'... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Horace Taveres Silver had so many great compositions that some of them got little exposure; "The Outlaw" on the LP "Further Explorations" is almost unknown; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mx4h_IXm5PcThis was so vivid that you ... | |
| Jazz for aficionados If everyone is sure we got it, whatever it is, then maybe I can continue doing what I was doing before my trolley jumped the tracks.With everyone's permission, I would like to investigate Horace Silver's music, the same as I did with Donald Byrd; ... | |
| Jazz for aficionados This is what I posted before the manure really hit the fan. Let me repeat, "I still appreciate your musical wisdom, for those like Rok, and Acman who benefit from it".We all know that you do not want to know anything about anything. What we don't ... | |

| Jazz for aficionados orpheus10 OP2,724 posts04-02-2016 8:40pmA long time ago, someone not even on this thread, mentioned that Blakey played behind the beat, and I mentioned it with no thought of Frogman. The real question is why does Frogman always make mountains out ... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Frogman, maybe this was when when you were "Shadorne" on 08-17-2011. Like I said Frogman, you think everything I utter is about you; you even lay claim to things you didn't say in regard to Blakey's drumming.shadorne5,291 posts08-17-2011 10:53pmA... | |
| Jazz for aficionados I read about "modal music" in the 60's, and I still don't know or care what it is.I realize there are people who do care, and that's good, but I don't, now hang me or shoot me."Behind the beat or in front of the beat" pertained to a statement abou... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Along time ago, someone not even on this thread, mentioned that Blakey played behind the beat, and I mentioned it with no thought of Frogman. The real question is why does Frogman always make mountains out of mole hills and think everything I utt... | |
