| Jazz for aficionados Schubert, the title of this thread on the music forum is "Jazz For Aficionados". I'm still looking for your posts where you submitted music, could you direct me? | |
| Jazz for aficionados Frogman, we've been into the evolution of jazz in relation to Africa, from slavery to the present; I wonder how it would go if we went in reverse; I mean what music in Africa that has been influenced by jazz from here.Acman could lead this parade,... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Frogman, I was just joking about the drum, but seriously, how long did it take for African slaves to cease their "Africanity" (new word) and simply become their own people. Even "genetically", some African Americans are more European than African.... | |
| Jazz for aficionados I can walk and chew gum at the same time, therefore, I can jump and not jump. If that makes no sense, don't worry about it. Frogman, when I see this, all the answers come to me. Billionaires who have all the wealth and power, enough power to make ... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Frogman, while there aren't many contributors to this thread, the quality of their contributions is higher than any other thread I've been on. I would like to know how many hits a day there are on this thread. Some people are like parasites, they ... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Rok, let me tell you a tru story about slaves here and their drums. At first the boss man didn't mind, and the drums had catchy rhythms, but when somebody told him, "Hey boss man, did you know they could talk with them drums"? That changed things;... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Right on Rok! I'm with you all the way; go with the flow, do what you feel, may the spirit guide you, and the force be with you.About my learning experiences; I've been to a university or two, at least I walked across the campuses (never got a ped... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Frogman, after reading your post, I feel like I'm ready to start my own band playing Cuban music; one would think you were a Cuban musician. I like the way Cuban music is coming to the forefront and I hope this continues.Enjoy the music. | |
| Jazz for aficionados Acman, I appreciated your contribution; not only was it informative, but it was an enjoyable read as well. I'll find some more music to compliment it.Enjoy the music. | |
| Jazz for aficionados Frogman, if spirituals, blues and jazz have an African connection, we should have those equivalents in Haiti, Cuba, and Salvador Brazil; could you give examples of them? Enjoy the music. | |
| Jazz for aficionados Acman, that is one of the most important recordings I don't have, and have never heard before now. I must have it; then I can just lay back and soak it all in.Enjoy the music. | |
| Jazz for aficionados Rok, you done went and gone "Hi Hat" on me and "The Wolfman", AKA Howling Wolf. | |
| Jazz for aficionados I'll go into my shallow awareness of Cuba before Castro while I'm waiting for your contributions.Since my awareness of Cuba was formed by movies and television, almost everybody in Cuba was white. Were there any Black members in Ricky Ricardo's ba... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Rok, there's enough stuff that left Africa permanently during the slave trade to fill a library and a museum. While researching Cuba, I came across a master voodoo drummer who lives in Haiti. He has a chart of types of "exclusively voodoo drumming... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Rok, you might as well have stated African influence does not exist because the although the music sounded African influenced, the name was wrong. Cuban street music is a combination of Spain and Africa.Spirituals, Blues, and Jazz are uniquely Ame... |
