| Jazz for aficionados And now for something completely different. A heavy drummer with a funk groove. Or was that a funky drummer with a heavy groove?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-N_SqtFerjghttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-N_SqtFerjgFirst time I saw Cobham was in ... | |
| Suggestion for a 78rpm cartridge/ stylus? uber, the only 78s I have are a concert album by Louie Armstrong and the All Stars from my dad so I didn't want to spend much money.I found an old Empire cartridge in my parts box and bought a new 78 stylus. My line stage has a mono switch so I t... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Silver: always funky and nearly always makes me feel good.I don't hear any piano "pounding" here -https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=boVaez6rVNA | |
| Jazz for aficionados frog, this was a rare time where I see things differently than you do. I certainly agree about drummers, or any musician for that manner, "fitting" in with a group style-wise. But your "It is also an obvious generational thing." does not always ... | |
| Jazz for aficionados pjw, Blakey certainly rates high on my list as well. I'd not heard that track before but it reminded me of this classic -https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FHKyVJ5YfNUo10, you had better judgement than I did. I've told this story before but don't r... | |
| Jazz for aficionados pjw, realizing YOU didn't say Morello was best, only reported that he was a poll winner, I will say he is overall my favorite drummer. That's different than being "best". I don't have the musical knowledge to rank drummers. But there are severa... | |
| Jazz for aficionados OK, tonight is Christmas Eve and the subject is trains. What could be more appropriate on a jazz site?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_zTkpME1ATQ&list=PLkLimRXN6NKwsvKxuIhwm85jYXKKhILzv&index=10Peace on Earth and goodwill toward mankind! | |
| Jazz for aficionados o10, from your story of riding the train to Detroit to hear Aretha I estimate that was around 1964. When visiting there did you ever go to the Minor Key?I believe I mentioned it when I first began posting here. It was a great jazz club that was ... | |
| Jazz for aficionados mary_jo, I'll add my thanks for the Beth Hart introduction. I'd not heard of her. Even before reading any of the comments in that link I thought of Janis. I certainly would not consider her (either one of them, although I'm much more familiar w... | |
| Jazz for aficionados schubert, thanks for those. I believe I have family ties to Poland, although Ancestry shows Russia in some links. I suspect when my great-grandfather lived there (1800s) the boundary may have shifted with some regularity. And it does not even agre... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Yet another "Take Five". This time with Morello outside the Brubeck Quarter.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-744pFNJkUg | |
| Jazz for aficionados o10, I don't consider the Messengers so much as a group, but more as Blakey's Jazz School. It may be that more top musicians came through that "school" than any other. So it is impossible for me to pick a single favorite. Interesting question t... | |
| A note from Magnepan about the "30.7 for Condos" tour josh, as I mentioned on another site, I wish Wendell hadn't identified this as "for condos". The designation condo has nothing to do with room size, it is a type of ownership for a residence. It might have been best for him to come out and say "... | |
| Jazz for aficionados You called for Joe Pass?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lMNlLbRrZc0 | |
| Jazz for aficionados Frog, while "cool jazz" has been an accepted term for some time, more recently I suspect it causes confusion. A new subdivision emerged some years ago, "smooth jazz", and I fear cool jazz gets mixed up with that by those only looking at the broad... |
