Jazz for aficionados "Southern Comfort" and the "new" Regina Carter were a surprise from jump street. The first cut "Miners Child" caught my attention; she gets into Appalachian music like I've never heard it before, her violin became a southern country fiddle.Somehow... | |
Jazz for aficionados Rok, Marantz gives the biggest bang for the buck in CD players. I have the SA 8260, it's old now. I'm curious, what model? The new ones are computer compatible, which actually saves you money because you don't have to by a DAC for computer digital... | |
Jazz for aficionados Acman, I believe that was the most appropriate response to a post that I've ever read. | |
Jazz for aficionados Notec, if only I still had the vim vigor and vitality to hang at those nightclubs which were anything but "melancholy". Visions of beautiful jazzy ladies still dance in my head, while the live sounds of saxophones, trumpets, drums and many other m... | |
Jazz for aficionados Rok, I'm hoping the CD will offer something I didn't hear on the computer, but before I get the CD, I must say; they have too much of a "popular" sound for me. Just from reading the song titles, and personnel, I'm saying to myself "It's got to be ... | |
Jazz for aficionados Rok, while we both agreed on the old "Regina Carter", based on the "new" Regina Carter, I ordered her latest CD, "Southern Comfort"; she sounds so relaxed and confident now. Her new CD is derived from her roots in the south before she was born, I ... | |

Jazz for aficionados Before I get misunderstood, I meant crediting "Regina Carter" with my reborn interest in this music, nothing more or less. | |
Jazz for aficionados Rok, you and Frogman can not communicate because he's speaking Spanish and you're speaking French. "Jazz", as ambiguous as that word is, is 100 times more definitive than "The Blues". Is one speaking of "jazz oriented" blues, or "Delta oriented" b... | |
Jazz for aficionados Frogman, here it is, "Quintette du Hot Club de France". https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=it_JlVlR8JQThis is the one me and Rok have on "Jazz of the 50's and 60's". https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CDPADMM_to0I have to credit Regina Carter for this "... | |
Jazz for aficionados Frogman, that's exactly who I was thinking of. Although I couldn't place a name with the sound I was hearing in my mind, when I went to "Stephane Grapelli" on your post, the two came together. I have him as a sideman mostly, but that's going to ch... | |
Jazz for aficionados Rok, could you post what CD's these cuts are from. She compliments the musicians she's playing with so well that they sound better; that's the sign of an old pro who's still young.Regina has also acquired an old mellow sound on her instrument that... | |
Jazz for aficionados Rock, I needed a new "motherboard"; it didn't cost much, but the labor was a "mother". Everything's feminist now days, why couldn't it have been a "Father board".Regina Carter has really blossomed; I have a CD by her that I'm not too fond of, now ... | |
Jazz for aficionados It's unfortunate that any success he had came so late. http://www.theguardian.com/music/2014/jun/14/jimmy-scott-five-great-performances-jazz-legendEnjoy the music. | |
Jazz for aficionados Frogman, your musical observations are most astute. As you pointed out, she did many takes before she selected the one that's on CD, which was the best one; although the alternate takes were quite interesting as well. My PC is on the fritz, but I'... |
