| Jazz for aficionados Did I tell yall about seeing Ahmad Jamal at Rick's on North Shore drive in Chicago? My memory ain't what it used to be, or maybe it never was very good, I forget; but at any rate I don't want to tell the same story twice. | |
| Jazz for aficionados Rok, this is just one of the albums I listen to when I wander off the jazz reservation. The St. Louis main Library is a huge building a city block square, and I don't how tall; they have some of the most amazing old books hundreds of years old. I ... | |
| Jazz for aficionados This is what I call "stereotypical jazz", and I can live without it. It was hip 50 years ago, but it's like having roast beef and potatoes one time too many for me; case closed. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iN9nqXfMxjI&list=PLdhGk7gKuZxZvk7... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Rok, I got my CD out, and it's easy for me to see how "Tender Hearted" is your favorite; it has a subtle "Gospel grace" that came from deep within the heart of the artists. Those musicians are well known and loved in this community; "Tender Hearte... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Is this hot or what, and that wasn't a joke. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RKsdd8NSr7IIs Eliane Elias hot, or what? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mcuko4vpqBMEnjoy the music. | |
| Jazz for aficionados Rok, that was a highly relevant question in regard to where the "new jazz" was created. When I was traveling a lot, and going to clubs, the music was different everywhere I went. In none of the places would I consider the new music any better, it ... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Frogman when I saw "Trane" he was playing a "Soprano Sax" and this is what the group looked like. The nice part was the fact that it was in a small club and I was no more than 20 feet away from the group. As I recall "My Favorite Things" was over ... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Frogman, you're the joke; if you had stayed on this thread, which is the only one where you fit, you would be "hip" enough to follow the inside joke without explanation; but you chose to bounce around. Now you're like the "prodigal son" discontent... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Where are you going with this Frogman? If I saw Alvin Jones, McCoy Tyner, and Trane live, it would have been 100% impossible to make that mistake. The statement was an "Oversatement", so exactly where are you going with this? Since you knew it was... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Currently, when you get past those two, from what I've been able to find, "quality music" is not that common in Africa. There seems to be a common thread running through music all over the globe; I attribute this to the PC.Right now I'm exploring ... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Frogman, I don't know whether or not you call "parody" a joke? | |
| Jazz for aficionados How's this for scat singing? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Otj5g_Bpq_UEnjoy the music. | |
| Jazz for aficionados I thought this was "Trane", he looks like "Trane" from the side view, and they all sound similar to the group I saw; they sound more like "Trane" live, which is what he sounded like on his later records; musicians play freer live than on records, ... | |
| Jazz for aficionados "Manu Dibango", now there's a name I don't believe I've seen on this forum; he's known for "Soul Makasa". Let us go to "Wikipedia" to find out more about Manu Dibango. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w2jYjUiulMQ Dibango was born in Douala, Cameroo... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Rok, people from around the world will agree with you on "The Bright Mississippi", I listened to it all the way through. Here he is all the way live. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X4frYZXc9tQEnjoy the music. |
