| Jazz for aficionados Rok, as you know, I have to occasionally pay a visit to where things are really different. Once again it's with Jan Gaberek on "Evenly They Danced"; I find that bass hypnotic, and the music seems to fit the photographs. http://www.youtube.com/watc... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Rok, that's tied with a few other records for "The Greatest Doo Wop" ever. It was certainly among my favorites.Enjoy the music. | |
| Jazz for aficionados Alexatpos, this is the first time I heard of "Ernest Ranglin", but I like his music. Since I discovered he played mostly in Jamaica, I guess that explains that. This certainly wont be the last time because I'm looking for more music by Mr. Ranglin... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Ronnie Milsap brought back a flood of memories of the 50's; "Doo Wop" and teenage love. There is no greater love than teenage love; how many times did you feel like your heart was going to bust wide open with love? How many times did you feel like... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Lou Rawls is my favorite male vocalist "ever", and I find that easy to say without restrictions. Rok, you know how I am about the "Jazz Classics"; you got to stick to the script. Well, Dianne Reeves broke all the rules on "Summertime", but she did... | |
| Jazz for aficionados "Horns and piano, horns and piano; how about a little "Gitar"? Grant Green, my homeboy was born good; I saw him at clubs before he made his first record, and he was good then. He would just kind of lean back, look at his guitar, and beautiful musi... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Acman, I saw that movie at a theater, although I'm not sure, or I don't remember the event that occurs out front before the movie; at any rate I enjoyed the clip.Enjoy the music. | |
| Jazz for aficionados Rok, we seem to be lost in a time warp. I have resigned myself to quit trying to get out of it, and just enjoy. | |
| Jazz for aficionados Alexatpos, it's absolutely astounding how music transcends all other forms of communication; I was intimately acquainted with John Wright's "South Side"; it was a glorious place, even beautiful in spots, while that South Side no longer exists, it'... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Rok, that's a very tall order, and a question I had to answer for myself. Forget about boxed sets or anything critics and reviewers have to say.Billie Holiday had a style so unique and special, that you could hear it in a crowded bar on the jukebo... | |
| Jazz for aficionados I can enjoy a conversation without contributing, all of this is quite educational for me, please continue. | |
| Jazz for aficionados Does anybody remember "Les Baxter"? Honest to God, I really believed this is the way music sounded in all of those faraway places with strange sounding names when I heard Les Baxter. I just thought this would be a good nostalgia trip. http://www.y... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Frogman, this is so beautiful; it's about musicians from different parts of the world coming together in "Bombay", and creating new music. What is that instrument Caroline, the lady in the cap playing?I've liked these musicians individually for qu... |
