| Jazz for aficionados Anyone else know Jack Teagarden? Growing up I heard my dad play a lot of Louie Armstrong, especially with the All Stars, which in the early years included Teagarden. As a teenager I couldn't really appreciate it, but as I grew older I did. So t... | |
| Jazz for aficionados acman, not much mention of McLaughlin here. I became aware of him when he joined Miles for "In A Silent Way" and then "Bitches Brew". Soon after that he became a leader for fusion with his group The Mahavishnu Orchestra. Recently a writer conta... | |

| Classical Music for Aficionados jim, the Haydn Cello Concerto was really nice. frog, a performance question: I noted in that Haydn video that some music stands had only the first page showing, while others had apparently two pages. Is this done routinely so that all players i... | |
| Classical Music for Aficionados Allow me to add my appreciation for the contributions by the frogman. Both here and on a jazz site, he offers great insights to the music and the artists. He has a way of doing this for musical dummies like myself, while not dumbing down his com... | |
| Classical Music for Aficionados Hey frog, if that marvels you just imagine living in San Diego. Much of the water there is piped from the Colorado River but some comes from northern CA by way of LA, so that is several hundred miles. Of course everyone adds their upcharge along t... | |

| Jazz for aficionados Here's something different, a book recommendation. At the very least it could be a nice gift for friends/family who are jazz novices. Although I've been listening for decades and still found it worth reading. Maybe because author Gioia is a mus... | |
| Jazz for aficionados acman, thanks for that Chico. I got that when it was new but somehow lost it over the years. So a long time since I heard it but it was all familiar again. frog I prefer the old method too. But then my younger friends tease me about that! ;^) | |

| Jazz for aficionados rok, the album image surprised me with a post on Classical for Aficinonados. I'd never experienced that before. I just copied the link name as always but when I attached that it appeared only for a second, they was replaced by the album image. ... | |
| Classical Music for Aficionados mahgister, does this fit within the religious music that appeals to you? I have the original LP on Philips. I'm not a religious person but I find this beautiful and uplifting. | |
| Jazz for aficionados Influence of Miles, and --Others may know this but it was recent news for me. Watching a program on the making of Pink Floyd's classic "Dark Side of the Moon", I learned that PF keyboard player Richard Wright said a major influence in his playing... |
