| Jazz for aficionados Duke Pearson:Excellent CD. What a difference Piano and Horns make!! Esp if they are Turrentine and Hubbard. Pearson does have a slightly bemused facial expression on the cover. Almost as if he is playing in the club / Bar, and he looks up, and... | |
| Jazz for aficionados reader, not reading , sorry | |
| Jazz for aficionados The discerning reading will note that the players in The Frogman's 'Joke' were presented as just three musicians who were friends. They were not presented as members of the same group, and more importantly, the sole members of that group. A de... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Have you guys heard this one?Three guys walk into a bar. a Trombonist, a Drummer and a Harpist.Cheers | |

| Jazz for aficionados ***** Of course it can*****Well Brad Mehldau didn't. And I didn't say a solo performance was less music.Example: I have Evgeny Kissin playing Pictures at an Exhibition. Solo piano. The first time I had heard it done like this. Blew my min... | |
| Jazz for aficionados I did watch 'The Drummer'. As The Frogman said, it's a tough life. I enjoyed it. I wish it had been developed more and lasted longer.I really liked the mature chick on the dance floor.Cheers | |

| Jazz for aficionados ***** I think you missed the sarcasm in my previous post.*****No I did not. I knew you would not seriously consider getting rid of half of your Spike Jones Elcassettes. ***** It comes down to the first sentence in the last paragraph of th... | |

| Jazz for aficionados ***** Well, I guess I need to throw out about half my jazz records.*****Well, maybe not half. ***** After all, what can anyone add to Gershwin's operatic version of "Summertime" , or "Scrapple From The Apple" after Bird did it? Oh yeah, and a... | |
| Jazz for aficionados ***** ???????*****Since this song has been played by everyone in Jazz at one time or another, it's difficult to do a version that will really stand out. It was a nice enough Jazz performance, but nothing that will knock Coltrane's version off ... |
