| Jazz for aficionados I wondered if listing George Russell among big bands I enjoy would elicit any comment. None, but then most posts seem to generate discussion when a performance link is provided. So with that I say So What -https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9aQoHRg... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Yes, good choice.As I said, I'm not a big fan of big bands. By necessity too much is written out which takes it further away from jazz in my (non-musician's) opinion. Still, there are several I do enjoy so I may as well list them.For the older b... | |
| Jazz for aficionados And some crazy time to follow that, from another Ellis album I have -https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QcIph0O_tnw | |
| Jazz for aficionados o10,Speaking of not haven't been shared on this thread, I didn't go back to day 1 but since I've been following no mention of Don Ellis. I'm not a big fan of big bands but there are some I enjoy. The Ellis Orchestra is one, although I could do w... | |
| Mono recordings rocky, I started buying LPs about the same time as the introduction of stereo pressings, around 1958. As mentioned, mono LPs cost less than their stereo versions then, so as a teenager on a budget I could buy more records at the cheaper price. Als... | |
| Jazz for aficionados As I expect most of us realize, Miles influenced so many musicians it would be hard to count them. He truly was a bad MF! ;^) | |
| Dunlavy Minimum Phase Mods erik, I reply not as an engineer but as someone who owned Duntech speakers for 19 years, auditioned several Duntech and DAL models, and had the pleasure of personal conversations with John on two occasions.John Dunlavy was one of our most respecte... | |
| Upcoming Technics SP-10R (100th Anniversary Model) Raul, thanks for your reassurance. I believe you live within Mexico City but I don't know which area and am not familiar with any of them anyway.This has been a terrible sequence of disasters for Texas, south Florida, Mexico, and several Caribbea... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Hey frog, yes that's the one and you found it quickly. Thanks for posting.The "black jive routine" was just my description of Macero's attempt at being cool and looking the fool. And yes I know he had some serious musical credits, which I assume... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Interesting about "In A Silent Way". I'd been listening to Miles for at least 10 years when that was released, but I loved it immediately. Maybe my ears were softened because I already enjoyed non-heavy metal rock? That pleasure continued with ... | |
| Don Sach's pre amp kalail, I suspect Don is too busy to have time for much internet posting. I think it is a one-man operation, other than building the cases. So I'll share what I believe to be the development.First off he has a long-standing reputation for restor... | |
| Jazz for aficionados OK folks, a few random thoughts to share.frog, good catch in turn with "Milestones". I knew there was something else lurking underneath in that performance but my memory couldn't pull it up.Chris Thile is an amazing talent. He is from San Diego ... | |
| Upcoming Technics SP-10R (100th Anniversary Model) Ditto lewm's concerns for Raul and his family. Hope all is well. | |
| Jazz for aficionados The opening reminded me of this -https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7te1syRAYO0but then it failed to hang together so well. Maybe I need to listen a couple of times. I don't always "get it" on first listen to things I enjoy later. (although usually... | |
| Upcoming Technics SP-10R (100th Anniversary Model) Albert may step in here to speak for himself, but if not, he began with a SP-10 Mk 2, mounted in an upgraded plinth mainly of his own design. He found that good enough to replace his reference Walker table and arm. Then he was able to buy a SP-1... |
