Jazz for aficionados Cal Tjader is one of my favorite musicians from a long time back, that I have overlooked. He was known as the most successful non latin, latin musician; that's because he explored so many other idioms, but never abandoned the music of Cuba,Althou... | |
tube for ARC LS2B II preamp 6922 tubes of whatever brand are "neutral", that's ARC's claim to fame; maybe you need a different preamp, like CJ for example. | |
Jazz for aficionados Rok, don't waste your time writing a good long post; it doesn't matter what we come up with, they're going to shoot it down.My last two posts were of good, current jazz CD's that I had purchased and reviewed; they simply overlooked them and kept o... | |
Jazz for aficionados I am not in the "what is, and what is not jazz" camp. This music falls into the category of "smooth jazz".This is "In The Full Moonlight" and it's free exuberance sets me free to cavort "In the full moonlight". [url] https://www... | |
Jazz for aficionados Frogman, my musical palette is not locked in the past, "Charenee Wade" is my most recent acquisition; the subject matter of her music is "singing of a more complicated urban existence"; no, this is not "rapping" about an urban existence, this is s... | |
Jazz for aficionados Rok, believe it or not, I was reading your post"..............More in a minute have to change to music before Shepp drives me nuts!" And that's when I discovered what that noise in the background was; what's Frogman trying to do to us? | |
Jazz for aficionados Schubert, you listen to classical as much as I listen to jazz. Taste in music is primarily a result of the culture you were exposed to.Your comment in regard to rap, hit the nail dead on the head; they asked for it and you gave it to them. Talki... | |
Jazz for aficionados Rok, if the good Lord put that load on you, you can bear it; I got faith in you, just remember Job in the Bible, he was rewarded. You can carry on, just don't forget to enjoy the music while going through these trials and tribulations. | |
Jazz for aficionados Acman, you're absolutely correct; I know because I is listening to it right now; therefore it is an is, just like you say. | |
Jazz for aficionados Sometimes things go so well together that you can't have one without the other: peanut butter and jelly; ham and eggs; beans and cornbread; well anyway you get my drift. There are jazz musicians who go together in this fashion: Donald Byrd and Pe... | |
Jazz for aficionados Alex, you have demonstrated the versatility of Milt Jackson; he was the best, especially when you consider how he switched from the "clinical" MJQ to the soulful side of Ray Charles. There is also a "Bags and Trane" album that gives us yet anothe... | |
Jazz for aficionados Moto_Man, I have that album, and a number of others by Jimmy Smith. This is one of my favorite tunes by him "Walk On The Wild Side" [url]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dy8dZEpEYrA[/url]How about "When Johnny Comes Marching Home"; ... | |
Jazz for aficionados Rok, with Rachelle Ferrell I had to quit looking at her over the top facial expressions, and scratch the fact she was singing "Autumn Leaves" and "scatin". When I turned away from the computer and listened to her voice as a musical instrument, sh... | |
Jazz for aficionados This is specially for you Frogman, since you're equating "soul" in mathematical terms, I'm going to give you some "super soul". In order to capture the nuance on this one cut "Blue Funk", I first had to get to the "high end of the high end"; 45 R... | |
Jazz for aficionados Acman, the most current CD I bought was "Offering", by Cheranee Wade, and it was boss. The other most current CD was "Kalenia" by Oran Etkin, and I'm still evaluating, but I wouldn't call it a loser.Actually I was challenging Frogman to come up w... |
