Learsfool, you went even farther than I was inferring to in regard to "imitating" improvised music. If this music was written out, do you think the classical musicians could play it, and make the music sound as though it wasn't faked?        [url...

Schubert, you're really on to something there. I was going on and on, talking to my minister, and using the phrase "The reality is.........."; and after patiently listening, he responded "Orpheus, there are many realities". Indicating when we lo...

Learsfool, that statement you're referring to, was made in jest more or less, but it was in regard to "improvisation". Actually I witnessed shows that were improvised night after night, and I found it unbelievable.Equally unbelievable are "pit mu...

Rok, Reality is the conjectured state of things as they actually exist, rather than as they may appear or might be imagined. In a wider definition, reality includes everything that is and has been, whether or not it is observable or comprehensible...

Before any discussion can begin with me and other "Aficionados", we must discern what is and what is not. Also, somewhere in between, what may or may not be.We'll use "Objective" and "Subjective" reality as a foundation for these discussions. Ob...

Charenee Wade: "Offering", the music of Gil Scott-Heron, is a new album I've been playing over and over, hearing it on a different level each time. There are a number of reviews on this music, all of them favorable. Here is one of the reviews;  ...

Frogman, I liked "Never Let Me Go" better than lush life, too much "fluff" in the music at the beginning, but since her voice had that diamond sparkle of youth it still sounded good. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vy4YvDBGRo0Enjoy the music.

Rok, and Frogman, I did volunteer work for Larry Rice at his big homeless shelter right here in St. Louis. I helped put up the TV station. There were very few "normal" people at that big shelter. It was composed primarily of winos, and people who ...
