| Jazz for aficionados Rok, very expensive counts me out. Look for cheap used Pharoah Sanders, I'll let you know which one's Leon is on, plus that's his best music.Since both him and Miles are from St. Louis, their tailor shouldn't be to far from me. Whenever I decid... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Frogman, I hope you don't think I said I didn't like "The Peacocks" simply because you posted it. You're getting kinda weird lately. If you think that, it's what I mean by "kinda weird". The Peacocks was dreary, like a foggy, drizzly, rainy day,... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Rok, I'm on a search for Leon on CD, and I see that he's available under Pharoah Sanders. He's cheaper going that route than just looking for Leon. If you plan on adding him to your collection, the 2fer is cheaper. A little help from my friend ... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Rok, he can certainly play the piano, and I like the music; I just can't figure why this comes under the heading "JAZZ"? | |
| Jazz for aficionados Rok, the rest of the world must be classical musicians in jazz clothing. Why don't we ask an honest to goodness Classical musician, like Learsfool, what he thinks, and we will be able to ascertain with certainty, as to why they have gone "Ga Ga" ... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Rok, since when did Frogman become the Bible; "Frogman said the lesser known are lesser known for a good reason". While that statement in it self is gospel truth, there is the inference that they are not as good. Alex presented a guy on trumpet ... | |
| Jazz for aficionados I am not going to turn this thread into another "Thrilla in Manilla", or "The Brawl of The Audiophiles". If anyone likes that sort of thing, I suggest they start another rap thread; or better yet, go to the projects in "Nawlins". If you don't wa... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Frogman, my beef is not with higher education, but with musicians who lean on higher education when they play jazz; believe me, it comes through. I do not have a short memory, it's you who are stirring the pot. Yes, it would have been much simpl... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Occasionally someone will post a musician who they think is really hot stuff, and when others disagree, they can't understand why. When I say others I'm including some other top jazz musicians. "But he can really blow the trombone", or sax, or w... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Rok, I heard the classical, but I'm still waiting on the "jazz". As far as "dem dancing shoes"; I looked through my encyclopedia of dance steps, but I couldn't find anything to fit that music. I think that maybe the "Futterwacken" might be appro... | |
| Jazz for aficionados It's not polite to step on peoples toes when they just git back; I'll have to at least wait a little while; in regard to messing up standards.Enjoy the music. | |
| Jazz for aficionados One of my pet peeves is for an instrumentalist or vocalist to mess with one of the standards, and not follow the script in regard to the emotions of the song. For a song to survive longer than I've been living, it must have something special abou... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Alex, this is not what I wanted, maybe you can find what the first commentator was asking about; it's much better. | |
| Jazz for aficionados Alex, this is one dynamite tune. It happened to be on the juke box of my favorite lounge, and there is no telling how many quarters I put in that juke box to hear this. (juke boxes were the first high end) Music sounds so much better when share... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Alex, I have a worn out record with Bud Shank Titled "Koto and Flute" that I haven't been able to find. This sounds as close to one of the tunes as I can get, but not nearly as good. Bud Shank blew some boss flute. https://www... |
