Since I've expressed my opinion countless times, countless ways in regard to Mr. Wynton Marsalis; if anyone cares to know, they can go back to pages 9, 10, 11 and 12; I do believe I've expressed my thoughts as thoroughly as I could think them, and...

Ackman3, I try and go back in time to when I was collecting and listening to that particular music. When "Return To Forever" was hot everybody in my group had at least one LP by them, my favorite's were when they featured "Flora Purim". https://ww...

Rok, "Slow Freight", by Ray Bryant has become one of my favorite tunes. I grew up a half block away from a railroad track where slow freights miles long crossed, I know what it's like to have to wait for a slow freight.This isn't music, it's a por...

Frogman, that was absolutely spectacular; the tambourine lady provided a visual intensity that can not be duplicated on CD. I would have given anything to have been there, continue the 70's.Enjoy the music.

Since I listen to music all over the place every day, covering two time periods in jazz is no problem.Enjoy the music.

Now that we have thoroughly covered the 50's and 60's, it's time to move into the 70's. Miles ushered in the 70's with "Bitches Brew". I saw him live with that same group before the album came out, and fortunately I was with some guys from New Yor...

Rok, that bluegrass reminded me when I visited the Clampetts in the hills of Beverly, I'll tell you about it sometime.

Well Rok, since you started a conversation about someone who's worthy of a serious conversation, I'll continue. When I bought the LP "Pithecanthropus Erectus", I had no idea what the title meant or anything, other than the fact that it was a "Ming...

Rok, this is my concept when I want to go to a "corroboree", or just hang with the boys in the bush; I wonder if Monk ever tried any of them steps. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2ZpXPwmbQvcThis is when I want to go into the 6th dimension. https:...

Rok, I've got more than one concept.Enjoy the music.

Rok, that would have been OK if they had just left the word "jazz" out.Enjoy the music.

Rok, you are participating in, and enjoying the best possible way to add to your collection; for example, I never even heard of "Niel Larsen", but now he will get added to my collection, thanks to Frogman.The very worst records and CD's I have are...

Frogman, although Neil Larsen is new to me, he will be added to my collection. Michael Brecker on tenor sounds especially good, this is a must have; Neil's concept of music coincides with my own.Enjoy the music.

Rok, I don't have Mingus at the Bohemia, but I do have "Jump Monk" from that album on a compilation. Mingus tried to simulate Monk's dance movements on his bass, which was impossible because if you ever saw Monk dance, you would know that he was m...

Rok, when Dinah died, she was married to "Night Train" Lane, a professional football player. I'm just putting the pieces together: "Her deep longing for something she had not obtained", "Honey if I told you, you'd faint", and her last marriage to ...
