When you're young, the most important musicians are the one's you can see live. Famous musicians could be in town every weekend, but I couldn't afford to see them. Live beats famous all day long when your only option for the famous is what you hav...

Rok, what are friends for; Boo! Boo! Boo!, Hss! Hss! Hss!. Now that I got that out of the way, I'll listen to the clip."Just throw me back in the alley, and let me roll with the rest of the tin cans". The first time I heard that, I was two miles b...

This is truly "World" music because they borrow sounds from around the Globe. On "Kiko" they begin with Japan, stop in Africa, and then on to Australia.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wWGKwNt9NY8I know I've posted "Yulunga" before, but I find it h...

It seems to me that the musicians that didn't get their due recognition are "West Coast", and musicians I actually met in LA told me they were making a good living out there, and didn't want to hit the road. What they didn't realize is that most m...

My favorite artist who should have gotten more recognition is "Lorez Alexandria", and this is my favorite version of "Softly As In A Morning Sunrise" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RWXimvRssmQThis is the version that resonates with me personally;...

Say Inna, I posted something on my thread, "Jazz For Aficionados", that should be on this thread. I'll put it where it's supposed to be.

Hey guys, this is on the wrong thread, it should be on Inna's thread.

Rok, it seems you have the most complete list of reasons for not being on the list of greats. I seem to know many of them personally; some even had beautiful wives they didn't want out of their sight for too long, or was that a tennis player who r...

Alex, a good local musician can make a good living, so I recently discovered. Nothing compared to a touring musician, but good never the less. They had to drag "Grant" out of St. Louis; they couldn't even drag Eddie Fisher out. There are other loc... 
What is your favourite Coltrane album ?
Inna, maybe there isn't any "Trane" that will meet your musical sensibilities. Tell me what you think about this; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HoOKcWFI-pA https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IVfNuQ14lBUEnjoy the music. 
Otari or Technics Reel-to-Reel ?
Changing from 1/4 track to 1/2 track will be quite expensive, but it will be a brand new head. When taking that, plus the fact tape is available one day and not the next, I think I'll leave the Otari 1/4 just as it is; although I don't believe the...
