| Jazz for aficionados Today's Listen:Lee Morgan -- THE PROCRASTINATORGot this one the other day along with the Bobby Timmons CD. What a lineup of players!! All tunes by either Morgan or Shorter. Loved the vibes.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RpEcB5mHoCkhttps://www.you... | |
| Jazz for aficionados O-10:I have both of the MJQ CDs. The Swingle Singers disc I don't like. It's one of the type of discs I will use to justify buying the Mingus Box Set. :) It was a nice try, but no cigar. Not very good Jazz or Classical. Or at least it was not inte... | |
| Jazz for aficionados O-10:From the sound of the voice, I thought it was a woman. Just had to see.https://thejazzword.wordpress.com/2014/02/23/just-who-was-pee-wee-marquette/Cheers | |
| Jazz for aficionados And the hits just keep coming.Art Blakey Quintet -- A NIGHT AT BIRDLANDWho is Pee Wee Marquette?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bAR-ESxB5GoSilver, Blakey and Brown in the same group!! Should violate some fairness doctrine.https://www.youtube.com/w... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Today's Listen:Bobby Timmons -- THIS HERE IS BOBBY TIMMONSAll his 'hits' are here. Nice fleeting touch on the keyes. No pulverizer here. His style sort of reminds me of Gene Harris.Some people call this Soul-Jazz, I call it Jazz-Jazz.https://www.y... | |
| Jazz for aficionados ****Rok, are you going to let "Ramondo" AKA "Frogman" affect your play list review?*****Yeah right. Your post is just out of sequence. I have already posted Mingus.Cheers | |

| Jazz for aficionados Todays' Listen:Charles Mingus -- TOWN HALL CONCERTOnly two tracks, 'So Long Eric' and 'Praying With Eric'. Total playing Time 45 minutes. Mingus is one of the few artists that can maintain a listeners interest in tunes of 27 and 17 minutes in dura... | |
| Jazz for aficionados O-10:The only question I would have would be the sound quality. All live performances, in 1964-65. But, Mosaic does have a reputation for excellence. It will be as good as it can be.I am not sure you can still get all the individual concerts on se... | |

| Jazz for aficionados Ramonron:Nice clips. I don't consider 1972 to be 'New-Jazz'. These clips fit right into the mainstream of what's normally posted on this thread. I was looking forward to your commentary. You didn't say anything. After all that build-up about intel... | |
| Jazz for aficionados O-10:Dead Can Dance:AWESOME! Some of these things work better than others. Wonderful music. The visuals were outstanding, and with such vivid colors!! A really good match of sounds and visuals. Is there a name for this type of art?BTW, your opinio... | |
| Jazz for aficionados ****You guys kill me.****If only this were true.****I have followed this thread with interest for some time **Then, stop following it.. Problem solved.**In my opinion, Frogman's posts have been a model of clarity ***Is this opinion based on facts?... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Today's Listen:Jacky Terrasson -- REACHGreat hype surrounded Terrasson when he first appeared on the scene. I will have to check out his latest efforts. Lots of live youtubes available.He 'pulverizes' the keyboard, sort of like Chucho.https://www.... | |
| Jazz for aficionados O-10:Andreas Vollenweider:Both tunes nice and catchy. Both could have been played on regular Jazz instruments. I guess the ideal was to be other worldly. Nothing as common and earthly as a Tenor Sax. I liked his harp playing, in spite of myself. :... |
