| Jazz for aficionados Speaking of Oscar, here are my favorite Peterson albums -https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WDCbfZxRg48https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qjShabu5-Z8&list=PLV8QvievY3ImKOwlHlqxhTA6abvP0rezTIncluding this lesser known performance -https://www.youtube... | |
| Jazz for aficionados o10, yes it would be fascinating to compare our respective jazz collections. However, I'm not into computers enough that I have an inventory list to share.But you struck again. I also had that "Like Young" album. Now if you remember my comments... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Catching up with the rest of you again. And glad to be back on track with the OP -- jazz.Let me offer this as a possibly surprising and under appreciated jazz musician, Andre Previn. I say that knowing his "My Fair Lady" album was alleged to be ... | |
| Jazz for aficionados frog, thanks for your well-considered comments, as always.o10, are you, or anyone else, surprised that Yma's estate didn't sue Simon and Garfinkel for "stealing/copying" "El Condor Pasa"?Actually, the whole musical plagiarism thing escapes me. It... | |
| Jazz for aficionados acman, your Trio link was blocked, sorry. | |
| Jazz for aficionados It's still Sunday, so for those who enjoyed Bley/Valente, here's an encore -https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a6s0cjSUDJEAnd yes o10, I would certainly consider Santana rock. Have you heard him with McLaughlin? A little jazz-rock?https://www.youtu... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Actually, I've heard that Amos Milburn was credited with the first recording referred to as rock and roll.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amos_MilburnThat too precedes Freed, which was why I said "many attribute", rather than suggest absolute author... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Interesting comments. The term "rock & roll" became common in the mid-'50s. Many attribute it to Alan Freed, a radio DJ in Cleveland (ever wonder why the Rock and Roll Museum was located there?). He used it in reference to the combination o... | |
| Jazz for aficionados rok, I only have a couple of their albums. Here is one, but I couldn't find a link to the entire record, so this self-explanatory number will have to do -https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H16fKUAqm0g | |
| Jazz for aficionados Now, "All the loud noise, drugs, absurd dress and conduct". For me, that was the description of the '60s. And while I certainly agree with rok that many times with music it covered up a lack of talent, I believe that is too much of an oversimpli... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Interesting about Doo Wop. I never considered it a separate category from R&R, rather as a sub-set. But to me it was clearly a contributor to and influence on the development of R&R. This may be original to the style -https://www.youtub... | |
| Thumbs up for ultrasonic record cleaning slaw, no need to apologize. I thought my little teasing would be obvious to everyone but apparently it was not.Anyway, not to detract from a serious subject (yes, I'd like to optimize the performance of my records too) but I can't resist a bit of... | |
| Jazz for aficionados rok, thanks for bringing that forward. It remains one of my all time favorite do-wop numbers.Now, this conversation seems to continue to reach back to "Elevator to the Scaffold". When I started college there was a foreign film series run on camp... | |
| Jazz for aficionados mary jo, try this -https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JNYOVEXJBBMrok, I'm not familiar with anything done by WAR for a couple of decades. Are you saying whatever may have been done recently pales in comparison to their early efforts? If so, I can b... | |
| Thumbs up for ultrasonic record cleaning Sorry slaw, you missed my apparently bad attempt at humor. My question was how terry could evaluate a record if it was still sealed? Obviously that was not his intent, but that's the way it read.On subject, I still utilize a VPI machine, althoug... |
