| 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... | |
| Jazz for aficionados O10, and others with a similar interest, you very likely know that Shelly Manne made several recordings with the same trio except it was identified as being led by Andre Previn. I’m not sure but possibly the label thought Previn was more broadly k... | |
| Playing mono records properly without breaking the bank - a phono pre-amp question. uberwaltz, if you are not aware, the Denon 102 has extra long connector pins so that two wires can be attached to each one. A Y adaptor is not needed. And the same (mono) signal will be sent through each stereo channel. Guess you could call that d... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Regarding Anita, this was one of my early contributions to this site but I don't remember it generating much comment. Both songs here kill me!https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DcMmVGrzpy8o10, you simply said "Since the black and white movies were f... | |
| Playing mono records properly without breaking the bank - a phono pre-amp question. hrabieh, your 12/10 summary seems like a "sound" solution. ;^)Hope you then enjoy those mono treasures. For the future, keep in mind the differences with older (pre mid-60s) mono releases. |
