Jazz for aficionados Acman3:I have Ravi Coltrane's 'Moving Pictures'. I will have have to 'review it'. Have not listened to it in a while.I see where 'these sellers' have gotten their paws on two of the leaning house Ivery recordings. I will order them nevertheless. (... | |
Why does most new music suck? *****I do play music and spend a fair amout of time in the recording studio so I'm really critical of the MP3 earbud "standard". I will say that most "kids" don't know what good sound is. Whenever they hear a good two channel system they are amaze... | |
Jazz for aficionados Mingus & Dee Dee, I have both of them, and if they were on LP, they would already be worn out. I think Milestones will be a favorite also.I have always considered 'Oh Yeah" and 'At Antibes' my favorite mingus. But 'Ah Um' is moving up fast.Cheers | |
Jazz for aficionados Marchel Ivery. I was not aware of him. It's on the OJC label. so I think I will try it. But, another one that is already gone before I even know of him.I wonder why the B-3 organ was not more widely used in Jazz groups? Was it being electric, a fa... | |
Jazz for aficionados O-10:Mulgrew Miller has died. We can add him to the list of past greats. He, and Lester Young, were both from Mississippi. That State has turned out more than it's share of great musicians.Cheers | |

Jazz for aficionados Since you put me in an Iberian mood, I had to pull out:Carmen - FantasieAnne-Sophie MutterWiener - LevineHow can one person have so much talent and beauty. Doesn't that violate some natural law?Cheers | |
Jazz for aficionados O-10:The Jesse Cook in Havana clip is great stuff. I like it better with my eyes open. (the senorita) :) I also listened to a few more of the selections shown on the youtube page. The music reminds me of what got me interested in music in a seriou... | |
Why does most new music suck? Many great posts.Maybe what can be said musically, that resonates with the western world, is finite, and we are getting close to the end. Pickings are getting slim. Could the only way forward be backwards? With better tech to record and listen.Tim... | |
Jazz for aficionados O-10,I don't watch or listen to youtube that much, because it's easy to confuse the total visual / audio experience with just the music. If I buy the CD, there will be no pictures of beautiful women and scenery. Then, often times, the music cannot... | |
Jazz for aficionados The woman is a FOX!!http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B7YsE-wQn9cCheers | |
Jazz for aficionados Mel Torme tune was good. Who were the backup singers? He is not my cup of tea, but I did like 'coming home'.Caravan was good also. Their voices just sounded a little too 'light' for the tune. I like them better in the link below. Miss Janice has n... | |
Jazz for aficionados If JATP did ruin Jazz, it was because it brought in Norman Granz. Cheers | |
Jazz for aficionados In a music sense, POP does not mean popular. As pertains to music, it's the name of a genre of music. All music is POPULAR to some extent.Cheers |
