| Jazz for aficionados *****BTW, speaking of Herbie and Orpheus Chamber Orchestra checkout Herbie's "Gershwin's World", absolutely beautiful record,******I have it, and I agree.I understand about the privacy thing. Esp on this place. Lousy with Barracudas.Cheers | |
| Jazz for aficionados The Frogman:Do you appear on any CDs they we might listen to?Cheers | |
| Jazz for aficionados The Frogman:Nice clip of Pastorius. It definitely had that 70's sound. Sort of brought to mind, Stax / Memphis Soul / Booker T / type sound.I have several by Sanborn, mostly on LP. Herbie seems to be a Jack of All Trades. I have him playing 'HANDE... | |
| Jazz for aficionados BTW O-10, Extremely nice clip of Milt and Wess. I just love that style of play.Cheers | |
| Jazz for aficionados O-10:There are worst places than Church in Mound Bayou.The last time I went thru Mound Bayou, I was on my way to the Blues Museum in Clarksdale. Had lunch at Morgan Freeman's place. Nice museum.Cheers | |

| Jazz for aficionados The Frogman:BTW, my doctors tell me I will hear Wire in time. They say the 'burn-in' time of a brain without frontal lobes is quite long.Cheers | |
| Jazz for aficionados I don't have anything by Wess as leader. I do have him on 'Basie at Newport' and 'April In Paris'. In fact he seems to be on all my Basie CDs. Its always sad to lose these guys. Esp since their quality of musicianship won't be replaced.If he reach... | |
| Jazz for aficionados I have a challenge.Listen to this clip without moving any part of your body. No Cheating!! It's not quite impossible. The Polish audience almost did it!!!http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mgV-xKe6vGECheers | |
| Jazz for aficionados The Frogman:' Satin Doll '? Gene Harris' playing touched on the melody more than Wess'.Your hint of 'Duke', gave it away. :)Cheers | |

| Jazz for aficionados O-10:Eddie Harris - It's amazing how sensitive these guys can play. This was a great tune and light years from 'Swiss Movement'!That's another reason Jazz is so much like classical music. Not only is it timeless, but can go from the Sublime to the... |
