Jazz for aficionados frog, I've read the same account of the tiff between Miles and Monk as o10 related, but no idea of where I read it or how long ago. Anyway, your reasoning about Silver makes sense.Now even though I have that disk, I've not listened to it for some... | |
Jazz for aficionados acman, good choice (so to speak). ;^)I was well into adulthood before I gained any appreciation for C&W. The exception were the outlaws, led by Willie Nelson.But I happened to agree to attend a George Jones concert with a friend who was a fan... | |
Jazz for aficionados rok, you mentioned a post by acman3 with "I Only Have Eyes For You" by Bowie. Can you (or anyone else) direct me to that? I looked back several pages but didn't find it.A few pages ago o10 posted the original doo-wop vocal version. After that I... | |
Jazz for aficionados schubert, forgetting is easier said than done. I was only there from the safety of distance in intelligence photos. So I admit I can't truly imagine what the experience must have been.Now I would hope you can find peace through the escape in mus... | |
Jazz for aficionados As usual, playing catch-up again. My excuse this time, I was traveling.O10, "I Only Have Eyes For You" remains one of my favorites from back in HS (the original). Not that long ago I heard Lester Bowie's version which knocked me out. Unfortunat... | |
Jazz for aficionados Interesting blending of classical and jazz, but not third stream.I heard this years ago live with Almeida and local bassist Bob Magnusson which I preferred to this version, but can’t find a link to a recording of that one. So - https://www.youtube... | |
Jazz for aficionados Some consider Lage a jazz guitarist. Agree or not?https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=63&v=kmnAOu124g4&feature=emb_logo | |
Jazz for aficionados rok, a friend who has some Native American blood told me the typical movie Indian drum beat -- BOOM, boom, boom, boom was strictly Hollywood. The traditional beat represents a human heart beat. | |
What's Worth More on the Open Market - Your Records or Your Audio Gear Years, actually decades, ago J Gordon Holt (if you don't know who he was then never mind) commented if one's record collection was worth more than their components then they were a music lover; if the components were worth more then they were an a... | |
Jazz for aficionados Thanks acman. I continue to be surprised by then number of "hot jazz" or "gypsy jazz" groups formed over the past 20 years or so. There was a long lull after Django's death but the Hot Club of France now seems to be well known and appreciated.My... | |
Jazz for aficionados mary_jo, I hope you are reading this and still with us.What you said is so true about jazz: "what I have previously said - make your own work, be original. "But speaking of movies, let me recommend this. It certainly is original, and I truly enj... | |
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 ... |
