| Jazz for aficionados Rok, on my original post I stated, " I wont review any record that's not on CD, nor will I review any record if the CD is markedly inferior. Fortunately, I only found 1 case where the CD was markedly inferior to the record."The reason I didn't men... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Gene Harris is my most under appreciated pianist. Since I don't have a good explanation for this, I wont even try; however, I will explain how and why I discovered this.My friend Rok, recommended some bargain CD's by The Three Sounds, and that's w... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Rok, I repeated the test. This time I gave the bargain CD all the advantages. The CD was in my listening room and the LP was in the basement. After synchronizing the two, I listened in the basement for awhile before going back to the listening roo... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Rok, I really appreciate your playlist, it helps me to decide on new CD's.In regard to those bargains, I suggest you use that music for deciding which CD's to buy. In the case of the 3 sounds, the piano is flat, and the piano is everything in thei... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Rok, you get what you pay for. I've been flipping back and forth between "Moods" by the three sounds on LP and and CD. I'm not into that CD, LP thing. I'll take a good CD over an LP, it just so happened LP was the only way this was available. The ... | |
| Jazz for aficionados "Party With Punte" is my play of the day. Tito has never failed to put the heat on. His name symbolizes hot Latin jazz. No one but the "Dizzy G man" can do it better, and that's the highest praise I can give when it comes to combining jazz with a ... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Rok, this is the "umpteenth" time we have gotten confused in regard to CD's, and it's not our fault; there are just too many CD's with the same name, by the same artist even. I have a 2 CD set by "Rhino", Artist: Nina SimoneTitle Of Album: Antholo... | |
| Jazz for aficionados "Trio Tre Bien", this is a group that I just re-discovered. Although I heard this group some time ago, they slipped through the cracks of my memory and got lost. Now they're on my top play list. This CD "Coming Together" by the Trio Tre Bien is fl... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Pnmeyer, Miles was lucky, smart, and bold. He also had something many other African Americans didn't have, he had a relatively rich background. His father was a well respected dentist in a small town, this gave Miles "Chutzpah". | |
| Jazz for aficionados Frogman, as always, you make thought provoking comments. Since "all" music is subjective, I have no problem with someone's proclamation that this musician or that is superior. As someone stated, "My religion, is the only true religion"; fortunatel... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Thank you Rok, I already have the music you recommended, and I concur. The music you pronounced OK will be on order.Enjoy the music. | |
| Jazz for aficionados Rok, the west coast jazz by Chico was flat, and I'm not an extreme audiophile. At the beginning, I stated there was a CD I wouldn't review, and it had some of the very best jazz in my collection, but the CD was lacking "nuance", that was essential... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Rok, "The Three Sounds". Chico Hamiltons West Coast CD's were lacking in the sonic department, they weren't as good as the "You tube's". That's why I asked. | |
| Grado Sonata, Signature 8MZ, Shure V15VXMR Evidently I'm not an "audiophile", I just listen to music and my Sonata is the most musical cartridge I've ever owned; but since I'm not an "audiophile" I've never owned a "bazillion" cartridges. | |
| Jazz for aficionados Rok, if the sound is good, I'm going to buy it. |
