| Jazz for aficionados Miles:That could well be true. In my case, Bird and Dizzy were never on my list of favorite players. Sometimes these guys seemed to be playing the practice / exercise book. At least To my untrained/not-hip ear.Corroboree:Interesting, but a futile ... | |
| Jazz for aficionados This being 'Big Band Sunday'.Duke Ellington -- MASTERPIECES BY ELLINGTONThe title says it all. His first recording on Long play (LP). Listen and you can hear why he is among the greatest music composers ever.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bZyVBVF... | |
| Jazz for aficionados O-10:You do have the most eclectic taste in music of anyone I know. Amazing. However, this guy is a fraud. He is not an aborigine. The music he plays is not music of the native people of Australia. You should check these folks out, before you go o... | |

| Jazz for aficionados NYC Arts Scene:It's hard for us peasants in 'fly-over territory' to resist taking shots at you folks 'way up there' in New York.Love Supreme Catch:I Knows my scriptures, and my Trane :)NYPO:The Bolshoi Ballet came to my small town and did the Nutc... | |
| Jazz for aficionados O-10:Got out my CD of Trio Tres Bien. It was a lot better than I remember it being the first time around. My favorite tune is 'Tender-Hearted'.Their sound belies the small size of the group. The really get a lot out of just the three players. I sa... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Ambrose Akinmusire:Not noise at all. Had too much coherence to be noise. I didn't think the music was that much removed from later day Coltrane or Miles.I was not familiar with the group, so, google being my friend, I found this on the Blue Note S... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Etta Jones -- DON'T GO TO STRANGERSA really wonderful albumShe's not quite Billie, but who is?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VJoKqPlHFF0&list=PLdKoEEF1n8crKI96ljTTiXz9ATDOrHFym&index=4I used to play this on the piano when I was a kid. Cou... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Today's Listen -- Harold Land -- A LAZY AFTERNOONPerhaps all 'with strings' Jazz, is not bad.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bhFC7LB5OXsCheers | |
| Jazz for aficionados Nancy Wilson:Exquisite! My favorite, and my earliest remembrance of her is, 'Guess Who I Saw Today'. I did listen to that a billion times.She seemed to have great synergy with Cannonball.She has also aged very, very well.Where B D OP?Cheers | |
| Jazz for aficionados Brownie with strings:Nice playing esp for the moments / moods you described. Lots of vibrato. Is that De Rigueur for Trumpet Ballards?Some sage once said, the only up-side to talented people dying young, was that we never had to see / hear their t... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Aficionados:Betcha can't just listen to one track and stop there! Brown really knew his way around a Trumpet. His technique ranks right up there with Wynton, but I think he was a much better be-bop player than Wynton.https://www.youtube.com/watch?... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Turrentine:This is the type music that introduced me to Jazz. You could hear tunes like this and stuff like Cannonball's 'sack of woe' on the Juke box in Bars..As they say, very 'accessible' which I always took to mean, it ain't Ornette.Nice clip.... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Acman3:Great clip! Loved it! The Pigs were great, but I didn't think the Wolf was THAT bad. Of course, I listened to 'Bitches Brew' yesterday, and it could be some sort of Jazz Post Traumatic stress thingy.Thanks for posting.Cheers | |
| Jazz for aficionados Quantum Mechanics allows for Something to come from Nothing. Sort of like this 'Ruckus".Cheers |
