| Jazz for aficionados Rok, Jeremy Denk, and other contemporary pianists, have never heard of "parallel thinking" or "coincidence"; two pieces of music can sound similar in spots and have absolutely no relationship.Just like people, music has a birth and people who caus... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Rok, I know you're out there! I want you and other aficionados to know that I'm "studiously" adding to my collection, and economy of purchases is of the utmost importance.Before, when I tried to stay current, it turned out to be a big waste; curre... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Schubert, I share your sentiments. When I listened to him on the radio, I felt as though he was a friend sharing his knowledge of the music we love, he had such a comforting voice. | |
| Jazz for aficionados "Aficionados" and devotees of the 50's and 60's; I just got an album you should have if you don't already have it. Just when I thought I had every thing in those two decades worth having, I discover that I don't, and that's the beauty of it. I don... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Frogman, believe it or not, we have reached an agreement and come to a definitive conclusion in regard to "subjective" and "objective" realities; it's concealed in your last post; rest well.Enjoy the music. | |
| Jazz for aficionados Frogman, on the issue of "Subjective Reality" I insist that we not agree to disagree, but come to a definitive conclusion.Subjective reality and how is it different from objective reality? Objective reality refers to the reality outside your mind ... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Frogman, our problem in regard to the way we perceive "jazz" is becoming clear; to me, composition is every thing, to you it's how well the musician blows his horn. For example, Michael Brecker blows a beautiful horn, but I didn't care for the com... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Alex, nothing is more important than communicating the truth as you perceive it, and you do that quite well. Your perceptions are correct. From what I can gather about audiophiles since I've been here, is that they are very much unaware of things ... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Frogman, when you are alone in your "audiophile" listening room, playing an LP on your perfectly adjusted TT, with one of the best cartridges, basking in a holographic sound stage that makes your listening room seem like a space much larger than w... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Acman, Threadgill was original, and very good; he had non of the "stereotypical" trappings of jazz, nor does he like the word "jazz" to describe his music.Enjoy the music. | |
| Jazz for aficionados Frogman, as far as "Billy Bangs" is concerned, absolutely nothing you and your friends think is relevant; that's because it is "my" reality, subjective reality though it may be, it's still "my" reality, and that's why there can never be an "object... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Acman, never heard of Ronald Shannon Jackson, or "Yugo Boy", but I thought it was boss. | |
| Jazz for aficionados Frogman, I'm dealing with some urgent issues at the moment, but I will get back to you in regard to Billy Bang and "Chan Chan".Enjoy the music. | |
| Jazz for aficionados Acman, I'm glad you took the argument head on because all of your recent posts have been quite original. Something stuck in my my mind from a past post, but let's call that irrelevant.Enjoy the music. | |
| Jazz for aficionados During the 80's I just collected good sounding music, that was classified as jazz although it didn't fit the classical definition of jazz; meaning to sound similar to the jazz of the 50's and 60's, but it was original.After that, the latest music ... |
